Default 9005 conversion question

So Ive looked around and nothing so ill ask here, I did the conversion already and its awesome but when im driving with them on my idle will drop to 500rpm and shake the car badly. Now the question is do i adjust the idle or can i put some else instead of raising my idle for the 9005's?

I've seen this before and it's usually the alternator or IACV. check em both i guess haha.

my understanding is your idle is supposed to go up when turning headlights on. can anyone clarify?
