No offense, but that's not a very good cutoff. It Looks like a big blob in the middle. I have no idea about it blinding others I'm just looking at the picture posted.

That big blob in the middle, is the hot spot. that's what you would see, if it were a halogen bulb as well. You do know, that that's my headlights, and not the Morimoto's, right? Eyecandynsx asked for a projection of my headlights. The Morimoto's are in post 15. For aftermarket LED headlight's, I'd say they look fantastic. But, if you don't like the headlights, that's fine. This is a review of the Morimoto Fog lights. No offense taken...

And that is why I'll stick with HID's... to each their own, but that looks horrible to me.

Baff, that looks good to me.
Does the DD still work?
Are they twice as bright as factory?
I am still on the fence which ones to get.
For sure I dont want fans.
When I do it I will do highs and lows. Not crazy about spending a couple hundred on a set of bulbs. Partly because not sure how long they will last.
I do have the Morimoto's and they do have a sharp cutoff. Im happy with them.

And after market HID's look horrible to me, so, I guess we're even there eyecandy. No reason to be rude.

The morimotos are nice but not as bright as I thought they would be. I've been running them since Black Friday last year. They look 100% off also.

Not sure what DD is? But, everything seems to be working properly. I don't blame you for not wanting to spend so much on lights. I heard an ear full from the wife on why I spent so much. The LED's are supposedly rated for 50,000 hours. I don't know how true that is, but I've never seen an LED burn out. Besides, there are companies that give a pretty decent warranty on them. If you're justifiably worried about their lifespan, shop for the best warranty. I can say, they seem to be worth it, at least to me.And yes, they're at least twice as bright.

Yeah, I tend to agree with their brightness level, but, I think they do what they're made for. Illuminating under the fog, so as not to reflect back into your eyes. I like them.
By the way, what do you mean "They look 100% off"? Sorry, I'm kinda new.
