I hope nobody has tried these lights, those blue bulbs have to be the most
annoying thing to have to look at.  When somebody with these blue bulbs is
coming towards you the glare is really bad and all this just to look like
you have an expensive car.  I may sound insane but I personally hope that
the High Intesity Discharge lamps on some newwer cars become illegal.
They, in my opinion, cause alot of glare and annoyance to other drivers who
have to see them in on coming traffick and I have heard others say the same
thing.

Also, most, if not all, of these bulbs are made to look like HID bulbs and
really are halogen bulbs with a blue filter coating on them.

Most importantly, and most of the places that sell them don't tell you, is
these bulbs are illegal on highway vehicles.  The packages I've seen always
say in small type " For offroad use only"
