Kyle,

When you get done post the how-to for the rest of us that want more light on the road ahead...

*offtopic* I'll try. Right now I'm stuck at how to fully disable the DRL disable for turn signals. When I had things temporarily installed even with the DRL defeat (folding over the relay pin), it was acting weird. I need to get all of those things taken care of before I start really using it.

Low and high beams are seperate blubs. Alignment is dead on. Standing 100 yards away in parking lot with other vehicles at night with headlights on, Blazer's lights are blinding??

Then your alignment is not 'dead on' simple as that...

How did you verify this 'dead on' assessment??

DSBenson, I just want to confirm that you know which lights are the highbeams or lowbeams. I'm not trying to insult you, I just am making sure that it's the LOWBEAMS that are too bright. I've enclosed a picture....
Anyway you can take a picture of the lights on at night? Thanks!

Check and make sure that the headlights are in the bracket properly...

If your headlights were perfectly adjusted, any bulb that's less than 100 watts would NOT make people flash their highbeams at you.

Kyle,
You were right. Alignment was bad. Thanks for your help! Thanks to everyone for posting.
