I have heard about relay harness, but is that going to change anything because my hid is already connected directly to the battery.

What about capacitor decoder which is used to flickering also, that stables the current, I think.

How I resolve flickering problem in that situation? Relay, Capacitor?!

...and I have hi/lo kit where relay harness came with the kit

The flickering is because of the ground being pulsed, so the direct connect to the battery has no effect. A large capacitor should take care of the issue. Use two 4700uF (25V or greater) capacitors. Connect the capacitor across the input power to the ballast (making sure that you match the polarity).
