Doesn't matter what freaking brand they are, any HID bulb in a reflector housing is going to glare. End of story. They are not made for that kind of housing.

1. Still too much difference.
2. This makes no tangible difference whatsoever.
3. These lights can only be adjusted so far down...even pointed as low as they go will still blind traffic, period.
4. I had one on a car in California. The film was wavy and hard to see out of..windshields should not be tinted IMO.

You gotta get a better tint then (Or tinter), Ceramic 50 and 35 tints are smooth and look factory if you install it right. doesn't affect seeing out of the truck day or night, but cuts glare, and u cant see in from the front.. With 2" of squat my headlights can be adjusted within spec. Nobody ever flashes me high beams.

Since we are all such fans, check out one of the best looking ford trucks IMO

**** will happen with a decal in the middle of the windshield. Idiot. It's a very nice truck minus the squat and the decal.

And the wheels and the rack and the head lights and the off looking mirrors and probably euro tail lights

With snappy catch phrases like "Lean Wit it, Squat Wit it" you know it's gotta be cool.







Maybe this can help some folks out.

This are factory mirrors... They're what I'm putting on my 75. It all looks good minus the stance and decal. You'd love the rack if it had an LED bar. But idk what's wrong with headlights.
