Default FREE Trucklite flicker fix!

Yup u read it right, u can fix ur Trucklite flicker by yourself for FREE in SECONDS! Sound too good to be true? There's a small hitch to it.... It comes as a trade off, just turn ur radio OFF. Yup ur lights flicker with the sound from ur radio. I don't know how or why but pay attention and u will clearly see it goes with the music, and if u turn the radio off the flicker stops as well.

Just wanted to share this tid bit of completely useless information:thumbup:

I had noticed with the fm radio on, and my truck lite headlights on, there is more static in the radio. But no flicker because I have the anti flicker harnesses.

There wasn't a harness when I got mine and the flicker don't bother me so I don't plan on getting one. Every vehicle I've ever installed HID's on I got fm static with the lights on. No idea how headlights and radio are connected other than a dimmer switch lol

It's EMF coming off the Ballasts/Drivers.

I have never had that problem at all. Now these days I listen to the satellite radio more and more.
What I have noticed that the LED dome lights flicker on occasion with the door open.
I am afraid that I have to listen to my radio (I replaced the stock speakers) when I drive.
