Yes, as long as you code out the cold/warm checks, it will not flicker or give you errors. Otherwise if you cannot code, or do not have anyone local to do it for you, I would not touch them. Any LED or HID kit will need coding.

Thanks RarScaryFrosty, I don't mind a little coding.

I have them as my headlights inside of the aftermarket eagle eyes housings with a projector. They work great and do not flicker or lose brightness. For some odd reason AFTER coding, they were flickering like crazy almost like a strobe light. After letting the car rest for 30 minutes turned off, it has never happened again in the past year, so don't be discouraged if this happens to you too! Just let it rest and let the electronics in the car fully shut off.

Hey, thanks for the tips!! I will certainly look out for this when I code them. I really need some bright fog lights to see all the potholes down here, the brighter the lights the better! Did you just have to code the warm/cold check off and LED on? Or did you have to adjust the Voltage (PWM) too?
