Of course, the RHD lights may do that when used in LHD >traffic, but that is because of their asymmetrical nature. If the H4 lights blind >other traffic, they are not aligned or the bulb is installed improperly. Exactomondo, when properly adjusted, they are so superior to sealed beams it ain't even close and they cannot blind another driver unless he has a street legal go-kart. Far less beam scatter. Precise cut off line on low beams, more of and all the light where it should be, in front of you and brightly on the shoulder with casting to the deer about to leap off the cutbank. Serious safer lighting. Das Beste!!!
