Okay, buddy. Let's go over a couple things.
Yeah, I called you a *******. Premature? Possibly.
However, this post didn't help your case at all. Let's start from the top.
Do my lights ever dim when I'm sitting at a stoplight and I roll down the windows? Nope.
Do they dim when I crank my stereo? Nope.
Do they dim any other time? Yeah, when I let my clutch out.
Does the capacitor resolve an issue? HELL NO! A capacitor is nothing more than a band-aid, and if you actually look at the numbers, they actually do more harm than good over time. If I thought you cared, I'd post those up here.
As for my competence, knowledge and general education...guess what. I've never read a Rockford Fosgate manual in my life. Yeah, at first I didn't realise that you were using it to buffer the battery. It looked like it tied into the amplifier power cable. My mistake. Now that I realise that it's hooked up to the battery itself, it makes a little more sense. However, that doesn't mean I'm uneducated. I probably know more about cars than you, in general.
If you wanted to truly solve the problem, then you should upgrade your battery, and your wiring.

Okay I'm sorry, can we be friends now?
