In town this morning I had a Landcruiser come the other way with very dazzling HID low beams - not sure why they were on in town. Gave hime the benefit of High beam plus driving lights, but he is probably wondering why I flashed him!

I have 55w HID inserts in some cheap spotlights and they are fantastic (once they warm up). The only issue is when you go back to halogen low beam, its like turning out the lights because your eyes are used to the much brighter/whiter light.
What is the reason for the need to have headlight washers? The self adjusting bit I can understand, but washers:confused:
Supposedly dirt/foreign matter on the lens can cause the light to scatter fairly badly.Quote:

More than supposedly - in my experience more than 50% of dazzling low beams result from dirty lights. Very noticeable (as at present) when locusts are bad in the district. (the rest are usually badly adjusted, often as the result of excessive towbar down load)Quote:
