But both are supporting for your xenon and erease flickering, if you don't add capacitors on, your HID is not working right and it's flickering. If you remove capacitors on, your HID ballast won't help stopping flikering.

When you installed capacitors, don't tell me that you didn't connect capacitors with HID ballast! If you did not connect to ballast support the xenon, where did you connect those capacitors?

I had the flickering issue when I installed my hid fog kit by themselves, bought a set of resistors packs from EAS and no issues whatsoever afterwards, no flickering or check fog lights messages.
