Holy crap! Someone with HID's that actually cares about the glare!!
Sorry if this offends anyone, and I don't mean to imply that all drivers with HIDs don't care about the glare from the lights, but headlight glare is one of my biggest pet peeves, and HIDs seem to be the worst offenders. Honestly, I wonder how many accidents some of these have caused. At least once every other week, if I'm driving at night, I find I have to either really slow down, or pull to the shoulder, because of glare from an oncoming car making it almost impossible to see the road ahead of me. Most of the time it seems to be from HID's, though I readily admit there's more than a few idiots out there with badly aimed regular headlights. I try to keep my windshield as clean as possible, to minimize the effects, but there's only so much you can do, and, IMHO, if I'm driving a damn truck, and sitting up high enough that I can easily see clear over your roof, and your headlights blind me... there's a problem with your lights.
It's good to see a thread like this, with someone recognizing the problem and trying to correct it, and others reading it and trying to learn from it. Bravo!
