Xenon Conversion Kit Flickers...Due to Non-Xenon Mode?

This is a follow-up question I have regarding HID Conversion Kits. I recentlly installed mine and was going to follow advice from I believe Nick Shu about having Saab use TechII to change my lighting mode to Xenon from Halogen, but everything seemed to be working fine. Nick mentioned that if I don't do this, my headlight bulbs would pulsate when I turn the car off, well this isn't actually the case with my xenon issue.
What's happening is that if I turn the car on (I live in cold Michigan) after its been sitting all night in the cold, the bulbs flicker and then eventually turn off. Weird thing is when I turn the car off and then back on, the bulbs come on but eventually go back out after pulsating/flickering.
My question is, do you believe having the car changed to Xenon mode will resolve this issue or do you think I have a whole other issue (possibly due to cold weather for some reason??).
My vehicle is a 2004 9-3.
Thanks so much!
Perry
