No ****!

Why do people bother to stick HID's in stock housings? They can't focus the light like a projector does so it winds up doing is blinding on coming traffic and getting you lots of 1 finger salutes.

I'm not trying to sound like a hater here but it is blinding to other drivers out there.

"Who cares, I can see" And what you will see is the oncoming car drifting onto the soft shoulder (because they CAN'T see), overcorrecting and hitting you head on.

Grow up peeps, show a little consideration for your fellow drivers....it might just save your life......

Dumb ass post ^^^^

Sure **** the other drivers right!? Maybe one day when your driving on a street with a yellow divider in the middle the oncoming car will run into you. Since there's no divider!! Ever thought I that.

Read it again. ******* with hids in stock housings says "Who cares, I can see"

I says the other driver runs into ******* with the hids in stock housings because they blinded him.

And WTF has that got to do with a yellow divider anyways?

People prolly wont turn off their high beams when he doesnt turn down his even though he cant lol so both of yall will be blinded and run into each other. Not trying to be a hater but some people are sensitive to light so blinding them is definate not cool since im one of those people.

Sorry for the misunderstanding bro. My bad. Just didn't know why you quoted jackalope. He never said that.

As far as rico, so you bought stockers with hids so you can fix your halo in the projector? And you gonna bother with painting them black too even tho your going back to projos?

I don't get it

First of all people stop assuming things PLEASE do alot of us a favor. second yes i do know stock lights are 9007 and projectors are h1 and fogs are h11 i know all that. my boi sells hids so i got the good hookups and free hook up so chill haha and no hailcesar I already had my stockers saved. but i added hids to them and im painting them because i dont know how long it might take me to fix them or i might just sell them for someone to fix for use them as a projects. and i hate the way stock lights look on my car stock color so ima spray them black to match it up with my yellow and black theme so thats why

Honestly guys... There are cars out there with hallogens that have worse glare than our housings with HID's... Are headlights are just fine to run without having major glare, ecspecially after painting housing black.

Housing has nothing to do with glare. You didn't know?

Only the reflector.
