I finally replaced one of the led 7 inch light bars that was flickering like crazy and they seem to work okay but now I believe I get the "normal" flickering on both when they are on and only when truck is running.

They are 36w each so which capacitor harness flicker eliminators do I need to run on them?

I used a 9004 plug so it connected directly to the factory harness hence I'd like a flicker free module that would just plug in between harness and led bar . I think i may just need the one on one particular side.

The flickering is very light and one needs to look at the reflection of a wall to notice but still flickers nonetheless.

This is what I used to connect the led light bar to existing fog harness.

Is this what I need to eliminate the flickering .?

I think the 12.99 one is more what you would need. But I don't know for sure.

Bah just saw they say 9-14v. I don't know.

u need to run them of a relay/battery power
This. You need to use the tap you are currently running to the light bars from the headlight as your trigger for a relay to turn on the lights.

Im not gonna argue that the relay harness method is better / safer. But dumb question, the stock fogs are rated at around 55w each? These are LED bars are 36w each. Is it the current amp issue which raises concern?

If these are not in addition to but replacements then you should be fine.
