I used some black rubber kitchen drawer liner to fix the rattle INB my center console.

Barely noticeable and rattle is gone.

yeah the morimoto kit, and I found a coupon code that works so they are like $135 with the code instead of $150. I understand not wanting to run the relay for the HID kit, plug and play is easier
I have the morimoto kit on my car and i didn't have to put in a relay it was plug and play.

your putting a huge load on your factory wiring harness. The gauge of the wire isnt meant to carry a load like that when the igniters fire. You could burn through the wires and start a fire. now Im not saying it will, but for peace of mind I ran the relay. Id have hated to not ran it then burn my car and my house down

If you used resistors did you buy the morimoto resistors? And if so, why not just run the relay that came with the kit? Resistors get hot as hell. Maybe Im confused and lost. I only saw the kit with the Relay or the kit with Canbus.

Morimoto kit should come with the HD relay when you buy it. Are you saying you didn't use it? http://www.morimotohid.com/hid-systems/h11-morimoto-elite.html

Yeah i must be lost or confused, i didn't get a relay when i bought my kit. But i also don't really remember i bought this kit over 2 years ago when i bought my 2015 Accord. I just swapped the hid kit from my accord to my civic before i traded it in.
