[DML] Re: HID Lights

["turbodelorean" <dmcfan@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes I have looked at HID coming at me on the road and I also noted 
that I own a S2000 which has HID lighting. Yes it annoys some people 
on the road because they think you have your brights on all the time 
but only people who do not know that it is how the low beam looks 
think that. Also I disagree that an H4 bulb puts out a better beam 
pattern than HID. My HID projectors let out a huge beam pattern and 
keeps a auper sharp line of light. Halogens look fuzzy in the long 
distance. If HID's were not as great as Halogen, then why are almost 
all automakers putting them on their cars?? Put any HID car(with 
projectors) next to any Halogen car and the HID will make the the 
halogen car look like their headlight are not even on. My friends 
even told me that when I am behind them at night they do not even 
need their headlights on because the HID's light up the road 
completely.
