Getting Head Lights To Blink
I know this may be rice haha 
, but its pretty friggen cool. How do you get your head lights to flicker when you turn them on (kinda like taking a picture with flash).

you turn the headlight **** on and off on and off in a pattern that sometimes it will do that... I once did it at a intersection and my buddy was on the other side and i did it to signal him, I thought it musta looked cool.
I cant imagine doing it all the time will be good in the long run....

It's not actually the HID "warm up" that does it. It's the trigger voltage needed to start the arc.
Theoretically a simple 555 timer circuit and a relay could do this on regular lights, but what a bloody waste of time and money that would be.
