Just sticking HID bulbs in without proper projectors is very stupid, unsafe, annoying, and you will blind other drivers.

That's true, for the most part... Some of these HID conversion kits don't seem to blind you when they're coming against them... Or at least, not any more than normal lights would... Then again, that's in 2004+ GM/Chev trucks... They have a good cutoff.

But you've gotta make sure that the filament in the bulb sits in the right orientation, the ones that don't are the ones that usually blind the **** out of ya...

yeah but that other guy made the comment that he hates when ppl put HID bulbs in the wrong setup, anyways i read this http://www.intellexual.net/hid.html, about how the the blue light effect is from a cover that comes w/certain cars, he says lexus and bmws, that makes it look blue to other cars but to the people inside the car its bright white, so i might check that out cuz im just lookin more for the look than the actual seeing everythin in blue
