In my opinion running illegal lights is one of the most rude things people do in society and it's dangerous as hell. Just my opinion, not flaming anyone here, per say, but just consider the fact that factory halogen light is easier on the eyes for people on the road, and factory issued for a reason. If you REALLY need more light (which is rarely justified) then pump up your high beam circuit with extra led lighting or whatever that can dim down to original low beams for traffic.
Be considerate. It's a safety issue.

I'm saying this with peace and love, and not aiming at anyone here, I also love to mod stuff just not headlights. just my opinion. Carry on.
I feel the same way. My truck has a 6" lift and when I'm being blinded that high up, how bad are cars being blinded? No reason to alter your low beams. Here in Northern California, these cheap Chinese hid's are everywhere. You typically only find them on vehicles that have reflector housings. I pretty much always give them my high beams, and when they decide to turn there hid fog beams on I blast them with my led light bar. If you live in a rural area And you need extra light output that's one thing, but living in a city is another. Rant over.
