I drive a 2009 Mustang and I refuse to put HID's in it out of respect for others. I put Sylvania Silverstar bulbs in and find them sufficient for legal speed driving. The low beams are 55w, compliant with all equipment laws.
I drove 189 miles per day for seventeen years. My past cars, a chevy Cavalier and a Pontiac Grand Am, Had Auxiliary Moose lights hooked to the high beams. They consisted of two 9" Light force lights and two 5" HID's. They worked greeat, but when I went to low beam, I had legal 55w lights, correctly aimed they do not blind other drivers. You do what you want, but when some novice driver loses control because he can't see, hits you head-on you may re-think your position.
I live in Alaska, in the winter we only have a few hours of daylight. Gotta man up to live here, regular lights just don’t cut it anymore and in ALASKA it actually puts you and your loved ones in harms way if you rely upon what has been the norm, we call it adaptation.
Its the facts FRiend.
I agree, those lights completely blind me, they should be illegal.
