I have personally been pulled over for accidently running my brights. Cop flashed me, I didn't realize what I was doing and failed to dim my stock lights, and I got pulled over. What we are talking about in terms of glare, improper adjustment, colors, etc all falls under the aforementioned criteria.

Regardless, by your admission, you can't afford the $160 HID kit ("$150 max."). At most do the 9007 upgrade becuase I agree stock light output is crap on these cars. But, if all you have is $150, then put it in the bank for standard maintainence of your car. Change the oil for pete's sake or fix that busted "whatever" you've ignored for months now. Maybe start your own "Poor Mans Gas Fund" for when $$ is tight.

One thing I've learned, people are going to do what they want.....and so are you.
can i PLEEEEEEEASE have your police department?

cars ALL OVER my city with miswired (wrong bulbs or faulty wiring) taillights that turns one bulb off when the rest turn on, and crap like that... or one truck whose brake light switch functioned the exact opposite of how it was supposed too... a million cars with out headlights, etc, running their brights, w/e.

stupid south is growing too much and people haven't gotten the clue yet that they aren't the only driver on the road anymore... the boonies are slowly disappearing.
