    Lights flicker when starting up the van

    Hi, I added some new DLR bulbs, but as it was not very good light conditions when testing the bulbs, the dip beam lights came on, but i noticed that the lights are flickering.. would this just be the alternator not generating enough current or something more sinister going on? cheers
