Anyways, are you running stock bulbs? That is weird because if anything the stock bulbs aren't that bright and even the high beams are fairly weak for a bi-xenon on the Z. My friends GTI xenons are super bright and his high beams are blinding and are stock.

:iagree:
I don't find my headlights to be as bright as other HID's. What a jip! Lol

Everyone now is running some aftermarket hid kit. A lot of them seem to be the 55w kit. In my previous car, it started to really bother my eyes driving at night. Not at all now with tints and the auto-dimming rear view. People that are running incorrectly adjusted bulbs or are high beaming are now a nonissue

That picture really is awesome. And this has definitely happened to me before. I have even gotten out of my car once to make sure everything was ok since I got so paranoid haha

The high beams on our cars are so bright, I often find it hard to drive due to the high reflection from yellow warning signs, i.e. "Slow to 15 MPH."

I love your farm rental.

No, the reflection on signs looks like a dying flashlight behind a newspaper, compared to the blinding, retina-searing glory of the high-beam blue LED in the dash.

I hate this, too. The point of high beams is to see outside better... if there's a blinding LED in the car while they're on, it kind of defeats the purpose.

Yeah there was a thread on this a while back http://www.the370z.com/nissan-370z-r...yone-else.html

They don't seem to bother me at all, but thats also because when I do use my high beams, I only use them for a short period of time, most of the roads I drive on are well lit, and have no need for high beam usage. :tup:
