If you just absolutely refuse to upgrade correctly with a retrofit, the CREE LED headlight bulbs are a better option than an HID kit. While still producing some glare, it's not as bad as an HID kit, and it's a cleaner light pattern, with comparable brightness.

$60-80 on eBay. No more than one of the better HID kits.
