He doesn't have HID's. He's got stock halogen bulbs.

Brilliant for purposely trying to blind them. cause an accident like that and it's considered negligence. You could do time for that if someone gets hurt, not to mention they could sue you as well.

just put some silverstars in there. i didnt even need highbeams on my old truck with those. i get flashed everyonce in a while with the leveling kit, but once i raise the rear it should be fine. i put the silverstars in my sisters stratus and she gets flashed all the time.

The problem is.....YOU aren't serious about other peoples well being and safety. Why would you purposely try to blind someone who was letting you know that your lights were blinding them? Especially since you know damn well you are running HID's in stock halogens which tend to blind people to begin with?

Yup. The more HID driveers can see, the less oncoming drivers can see. i'd like to put those people in the other persons shoes and see how they would react.
WIth all the mod money guys spend on their trucks and then to just cheap out and not care??? Not only does it blind people but it doesn't direct the light like it should. My retro is 5 times brighter than my ignorant buddy who runs HID's in stock halogen housing because my light is more directed. There's more to an actual retro than just being legal....

Guys who think their HID conversion kits are bright would Sh*t if they actually realized how much more light actually comes from a retro compared to their blinding HID conversions.

sorry for the long delay in responding. The lights are right about where they need to be as far as being adjusted. Maybe the owner before me put in those daystars or somethin. I dont know... dont feel like looking either. But hopefully it stops... Its pretty damn irritating.

Kinda of topic...i heard something on the news waaaaaay more sickening than guys runnin high beams 24/7...

Apparently a few weeks ago in Calgary, Alberta there was a group of people driving around at night with their lights OFF and then preceded to chase and gun down those that honked or flashed them... just sick!!!
Yup, nearly soiled myself when i heard that.
