    So your saying you don't care that if someone (possibly older person) gets blinded by your lights, crosses the center lane and hits you head on? Or a car behind you? I've seen tacos and other trucks with hid lights in stock housings. I don't stare at it and still is blinding.

    It's no fun being an idiot if you can't drive around with HID's in stock housing like an idiot.

    Every time I see someone driving the opposite direction with HIDs in stock housings, I get verrrrrrry annoyed. Usually results in a flash of my light bar with 6,000 lumens of "screw you"

    Thinking back, that dick at the Toyota store that chopped my pedal said something about increased something or another.

    Fun fact: your 10 k ricer lights in the stock housing produce less visibility than stock. If that were me that would be a more important thing to fix. You made it worse :laugh: hahahahahaha I mean it's funny because a modification is to accomplish something better... Unless I'm missing something? Anyways :taco:

    To me it's personal preference and helps me to see better at night everybody on here doesn't seem to like them and that's ok with me when I get enough money to retrofit I will but until then yes I have hids in stock housings

    What about the other people around you that just got hit with your light bar light scatter when you flashed the ass hat with the HID's in halogens?

    You are doing the same thing as the jackass everyone is bashing right now.
