You could always buy some ************* Spyder HID lights off of eBay.... You can drive around WITH your high beams ON + the top perch and not a soul will flash you. I know from experience.

Ha ha, Got my first flash today after 5 months of ownership.

In fact, the same guy flashed me twice. He was on the oppoisite side of the street facing me at a red light.

At first, I wasnt sure he flashed me. I was WTF, but did not reply since I was not 100% sure.

Then he did it a second time...Mistake! Gave him the highs as well as the two switches of deathray!!! About 30,000 lumens worth!!!...

Bet he wont do that again!!! :ROFLJest:

I think we all have the same reaction when we get flashed and arent guilty, but if someone else appears to be running high beams, do you guys flash them? And what if their lights werent on high beam, just seemed to be? Just curious... I have sensitive eyes, always wear sunglasses during the day, and get blinded by headlights, but I flash people I think are running brights only to get shown their real brights quite a lot. I dont feel bad for doing it...their ******* headlights need adjusting unless they are loaded down or pulling a trailer.

I will say this- I dont get flashed at all since installing Ducati's HIDs...they are the shit.

I only get mad when I get flashed...then show them a quick peek at my real high beams only to get flashed again or to have them turn their high beams on and keep them on. That's the scenario where the off-road lights would be getting lit up for me.

Gm truck headlights always look like they're on high, I've flashed some of em a few times when they didn't have their highs on, they flash back, it's all good.

Same thin if someone flashes me I just blip my highs on quick to let em know.

The ones that **** me off are the ones that flash, and then turn their highs on after I flash mine back.

Or the people who come up behind you with their highs on. I turn all my lights off quick and back on, usually try figure it out, if they don't I slow right the eff down, then the second they pass me I turn my highs on and stay on their ass for a few miles.

Guaranteed that person won't leave their highs on when coming up to someone again.

The one I get a lot around here, are the slammed imports. I pull up behind 'em at a stoplight, and I can see my (stock) headlights lighting up their interior and mirrors. I feel bad actually, but then they'll flip me off through the rear window, or they'll stick their hand out a window/sunroof. Its like, "look, you're the ******* that decided to scrape the gum off the road with your frame, don't get mad at me for that."...


:flipthebird:...then I turn their cab into a friggin nightclub, flashing my highs on and off and turning on my hood mount lights, as well as my emergency flashers (those suckers are bright too).....:flipthebird:


Needless to say, I've had a few craptastic rides run a red light just to get away from that... :ROFLJest:
