Help with lights flickering please!

I have a 2008 C300 4Matic sport and I changed my headlights and fog lights with no issues, the "eyebrow" part, side markers & license plate lamps flicker like crazy even with resistors. Can anyone help on what to do?!

Even bulbs claiming to be canbus compatible aren't always, you might want to look into getting replacements from AZNoptics, at least that way you have a forum vendor that can troubleshoot issues and stand by their products.
