u need a capacitor to stop this from happening, or some other source with a constant 12V when the lowbeams r turned on. reason being is that particular headlight is designed to send 12V pulses instead of a constant 12V. so the light bulbs will see 12V 0V 12V 0V 12V 0V and so on. halogen bulbs dont flick because they are not sensitive enough. notice how when u cut power off to a halogen bulb it slowly dims away, thats the reason it doesnt flicker. if u just add a relay to the lowbeam circuit the relay will continuously click on and off when its energized, that is y u need to add a capacitor to store power so the lights sees a constant 12V.
