My BMW has some of the brightest headlights around, but they don't blind oncoming drivers because they only shine down on the road. If you point the car at a blank wall 10 feet away, you can see that the beams are slightly below parallel with the ground, and there's a very distinct line above which almost no light hits.
But so many idiots install these do it yourself kits, and then have their "low beams" with a slight up angle. Yeah, it'll illuminate more of the road for you, but it might also blind anyone that has to go by you on a two lane highway. Fucking obnoxious as hell. |
Yes.
Again can't speak for other cars but adjusting a scion tC's headlights is a simple 10mm bolt ontop of the housing right in the open, so I'm not blinding anyone while I drive.
I parked my car against a smooth wall, about 15 feet away. . made a line where my stock halogen lamps were left. . put in my HID's and adjusted my headlights accordingly. . .it wasn't too big of a difference but still, I don't want to be a douchebag blinding everyone. . .just able to see better at night.
Oh and also HIDs don't work as Highbeams, sorry
They take a 5-10 seconds to fully 'power up' and switching them on and off all the time can blow the Ballast Box extremely fast. . .it can be done but its not recommended.
