My eyes...the goggles do nothing!

I would like to see some cutoff shots too. from the posted pics, it just *looks* like it would blind an oncoming driver. not doubting you of course, but maybe a shot from another angle would do it more justice?

Not to step on any toes but at the bottom of the web site you get this message.

not affiliated with Philips International

So it is not the same company as you mentioned.

You can practically tell from the pic that there's a ton of glare. The HID one looks like he's got his hi-beams on.

it is just the angle that makes it look like there is a lot of glare, headlights are supposed to let out a little glare however so that the headlights light up road signs. I also took these pictures with my car parked in the driveway, so its really catching it at an angle. New pics should be ready tonight.
