Needs projectors. That's a TON of glare, and you're going to make a lot of people on the road angry, not to mention dazzled/blinded.

LEDs are nice though.

^^ Exactly why I won't be getting HIDs any time soon. Why get HIDs if you can't properly use them? They DO look nice but.. function > form.

pink HID's have ____ poor light production. but it nseems you got lucky by getting 6K's that actually have some light production. my stock lights still outshine most guys around here. safety over looking cool sometimes

Montague: How is the glare with the HID kit? I would imagine that there is a lot of light scatter with it due to the reflector housing. Do you get high beam flashed a lot from on-coming traffic?
