ok, got the lights hooked up. They are GREAT! TRUCK LITES REALLY DID A GREAT JOB. Only had trouble with one pig tail. spent about 20 min putting the first pig tail to the light. just didn't seem to want to get to gather, but the other was trouble free.
Dually D2 fog lights. 2 or 3X brighter then the HEAD LIGHTS! Really impressed with quality of light it self. all thick solid metal. very high quality. can't say enough about that. North ridge have very good fog light adapters. solid mounts very good. they come with there own wiring... .......
only trouble was, i wanted these fog lights to work with all factory controls, you know as a upgrade for the factory fogs. they were designed to have their own switch, and not be. called north ridge they said just cut and spilce the plugs. It worked... mostly. They flicker just a little at low RPM's (truck lite headlights too). Also they Fog lights WITH EVERYTHING TURNED FULLY OFF. strobe for about 10 times over 20 seconds until off. they didn't strobe (blink what every you call it) bright enough to show up on anything in front of me, only if you look directly at them you will notice it.
Northridge said they had never heard of any flicker, and assured me that they highly doubt of any flicker at all... well i got a little, wife noticed it first thing at stop lights. i didn't really notice all too much.
Over all i am very happy. Great lights.
Now if any body has any idea how i can make them turn on with my brights! i will be one happy clam.

Looking back at some of the threads in searched iv found that people recommend a "relay harness" to bypass the CANBUS, an SMS harness (which is expensive), or capacitors (24v I believe to fix for both high and low beam flicker), or this LED harness from TLG (looks to me like just 2 capacitors bundled together) that's not too pricey.
