I've noticed a big difference with 6k HIDS in my Fabia, and have had no problems with other drivers too.

Hate HID's with a passion.
What a bizarre thing to hate.

Hids are the single best mod you can do to a car that doesn't have them already. Wouldn't have a car without them now.

It's cockends with HID's that blind everyone who say the original headlamps are shit, and yet they never venture out of a 30mph limit which is streetlit anyway.
Coz itz cool innit.

My H7R's passed mot, no problems with Beam pattern and never been flashed for dazzling drivers in 18 months
Removed now as plod are pulling people for them now, even pulling people with factory xenons to check. Shows they cant tell the difference! Cheap ebay kits are maybe guilty for having a shit beam pattern

That's the thing, if they make a decent image then they're fine. It's tits who don't even know what an image is and proceed to blind everybody.

I've fitted a few hid kits to non hid headlights and never once blinded anyone or been flashed by other motorists for doing so.

My Polo has them as standard and tbh, i thought they would have been alot better than what they are. Not all that great on un-lit roads. Over-rated and wouldn't put me up nor down now if i bought a car that didn't have them.

ive had bi-xenon HIDs in my last corsa and loved them, make driving on un-light roads so much better/safer, you can see further amd see amything thats on the road. They were out of Pattern for the MOT but got that sorted and passed mot, had a few people flash me, most people buy 35w HIDs which aint that bright, but if people buy the 55w HIDs then they will be blinding people everywhere they go, 55w shouldnt be sold unless they are being put in projector headlights as 35w hids in projectors are garbage
