After installing the HIDs in my car back in May, I was only able to drive my car around for a few nights before i had to return to school and garage the car.

Anyhow, I remember sitting in another car, and having my friend drive my car in the opposite direction, so I could see just how the lights looked on a regular street. They didnt look much brighter/blinding than cars with HIDs from the factory. My I30 has the foggy lenses on it, and I was wondering if maybe the foggy lenses disperse the light better than the clear housings. By the way, when I did the "tests" I had never even aimed the lights down, they have never been adjusted since the birth of the car.
