Re: HID Conversion
I have been driving with my 5000K HIDs installed for almost 4 years and have never been flashed for glare.
The only exception is when I was running my 5000K HID foglights. Other drivers assumed that they were high beams because they saw 4 lights. A quick flash of my 120W high beams set them straight. In winter snowy weather I drive exclusively with only fog lights (headlights disconnected) Less reflected glare and more usable light than using the standard headlights. More photos in my locker HERE .

My biggest concern about going with HIDs is that I don't want to make a nuisance of myself to other drivers all in the name of vanity. Thanks for your feedback! I feel better and better about moving to HIDs! Yoshi

Thanks! Bobby
