Rigid Dually LED Lights Tied Into Factory Fog Light Switch
I was going to utilize my factory fog light switch for my set of Dually LED lights with a relay switch diagram i found on the forum.But this morning i ran across a LED LOAD RESISTOR kit.Will this work to stop the led flicker when a relay is not installed? And if it would work,where to install this kit?Would i get 2 and put them in line before the dually led lights?

I tied my 14" LED bar into my fog light harness, no issues with flicker. The only complaint is switching to high-beam turns the LED bar off now. I will eventually re-wire to a separate switch.
Got it here... Very satisfied with output and quality.

I'm going to be using my dually leds as fog lights.Removing my factory fog lights all together.They're not going to be used as running lights.So if i'm understanding you correctly,I can remove my factory fog lights and install the rigid dually LED's in there place.Then make a pig tail to connect my factory fog light wire harnest to the LED's wire harnest.Turn them on and i won't have any issues with the LED's even thou the LED's takes less wattage? And running no relay?

I recommend you put them on a separate switch. I had dually's wired direct into the stock harness and after the jeep was shut off they would sit there and flicker. I read that canceler capacitors would fix this problem so I installed some and they fixed the flicker after shutting the jeep off, but now they will randomly flicker when it is running . I have them unplugged right now until I wire them on their own switch because the flickering was getting annoying.
