Default Only Highbeams

I know a lot of you will be thinking, "Wtf mate?" when you read this,
but it's all personal preference.

I'm thinking of removing my lowbeam bulbs and just running on
yellow highbeams for night time driving. I personally like my tC better
when my sidemarkers are on and the highbeams, which are closer to the center
of the car, are on also. Primarily a cosmetic modification.

You'd have to see a picture of it or in person to get what I'm really saying.

Anyways, I was wondering if there was anyway I could possibly angle the high's
a bit downward. I don't want to blind other drivers if I do this.

I was also wondering if it was possible to run a regular lowbeam bulb in the highbeam
harness so that instead. The lowbeams are 50watt while the highs are 60watt,
so I'm guessing that wouldn't be a problem?

If anyone could help me out, thank you.

You can put a lowbeam bump in the highbeam location with a little modification I'm sure... Your lense will still be super bright though... I'm not sure that even if you angle it down, the design of the lense won't still slam oncoming drivers with a lot of light.

someone else wanted to do this also? Kinda dumb if you ask me, but then its also weird that Scion made fogs that are so close to each other.

Im pretty sure you will have alot of problems with ppl flashing and whatnot? IMHO.....dont do it! It would look weird and ugly!
