If you've had someone flash you, they could be either installed upside down or you have them aimed too high.

I've had my 4x4truckleds H13's since March 2016 and have never been flashed. I've even used my girlfriends Subaru Legacy to test all oncoming angles (driving at my truck) as well have having the truck behind the car. No glare.

Default leds in reflectors

anybody have distance throw issues with leds in reflectors? Asking for a 2010 f150. Lights work great, super bright, just don't throw very far, sucks for highway night time. Wondering if it's all leds like this setup or just my particular leds.

Swapped to HIDs for a bit, they threw much farther, but weren't as bright.

How did you orient the glare shield relative to the headlight on your truck?

I’ve had them in so long that I honestly really cannot remember at this point, but I believe the shield would be on the bottom facing up at the 6 o’clock position.

Here is a photo comparing them installed incorrectly (top) vs correctly (bottom):

They are neither. They only go in one way and the shield is at the six o'clock position. Once in four months? meh
