After driving around ALLOT more with my HIDs, and now with them in my fogs as well I can say for sure that the HIDs in my factory projectors create NO glare that effects traffic in any way. The only glare I've been able to find goes straight up and ~3 feet infront of the car when parked in my garage. The only way it could get in oncoming traffics eyes/mirrors is if they were on a cliff above me, and even then the glared light isn't very bright. As for the pictures, they are no example of the HIDs. The picture obviously shows tons of glare, and honestly if it were that bad I would have taken off the HIDs right away. As for my fog lights though, well I'm not 100% sure if I'm keeping them, I need to have someone drive my car while I'm in my other one to see if they're blinding. They have a pretty good amount of glare, but it's in strange areas that I can't tell if it effects traffic.
The new Nissan altimas and Acura TSXs OEM headlight have tons more glare than my OEM projectors w/ HID's. They seam to even have more blinding light than my fogs, but my fogs definitely take the win for more glare. By blinding light I mean then seam to shine directly at me, where as my fogs light (and what I mean by glare) are just extreamly bright at the source.Originally Posted by aveodude
That is a TSX projector. That cutoff is razor sharp. Unless he hit a bump or the road had dips, that light stays well below your line of sight.
And if you really want to see how bad your lights are, get someone to switch cars with you and have them follow you. I will assure you that the whole interior of the car you are driving will be lit up and you will be blinded. Then you can take turns driving towards each other and tell me it does not get in others eyes.
You can see the glare plain as day in your picture. Here are 2 pics of and Evo that I took. This is a great example of how the glare does not get into your eyes with the projectors.
It maybe the TL but either way I get blinded by those acuras and the altima daily and not just in my low car, sometimes in my 4x4 expendition as well. I drive 50+ miles a night so I've been paying close attention to this the last week or so. There are a few other cars that blind me pretty badly but in there cases I think it's just because my cars so low. The altima and acuras get me several times a night.Originally Posted by aveodude
I've done that, that's the first thing I did when I got my HIDs in. When I had the tint on the headlights it did scatter pretty bad but once I got that tint off it wasn't bad at all. The fogs are probably another story though.
well I can tell u that HID are illegal in USA, if u install them on a non-projector headlight, thats why I planning on makle a retrofit projector headlights, u can see my garage, I have HID 6000K installed on my aveo, I live in venezuela, an here police don't care good for my jeje.
Yea they are illegal if in a reflective housing...
But I LOVE the HIDs on my TSX... even when my girl follows me when I drive the Jeep, we have no problems...
