LED Lights Flickering?

Hello guys! hope everything is fine!

I own a Ford Fiesta MK8 ST-Line, 2018 Model which had standard halogen lights for the low and high beam.

i decided to swap them out for a pair of LED bulbs so i've purchased

These:

Phillips Ultinon PRO3021 H7 LED 6000K 12V 20W

The thing is , after installation, and while no CANBUS errors appeared the lights flicker a little bit. it's sometimes the right headlight, sometimes the left, in a complete random manner.

However , the problem is yet to be fixed, as the headlight still flicker and i'm left out of hope or knowledge on what to do next to fix my issue.

after some more digging, i've seen that Phillips actually sells another kit (different than the previous one, both as a product code, and as a product) that is specifically for light flickering, but i haven't got my hands to it yet, as i'm afraid i'll just waste another 70 EUR for no reason.

 

The Kit is the following:

so my question is the following, will this be able to fix my issue or is it just another wasted amount of money? has anyone came across anything similar , and if so , how did you fix it?

Thanks in Advance,
