Default HID's under fire.

For the good of the community, can someone in Alabama do a contract hit?

Roy Carter of Muscle Shoals, Ala. to "NHTSA:

"The high-intensity lamps should be banned immediately, and everyone now owning them should be made to replace them with normal headlights."

PLEASE! SOMEBODY shut this MORON up and make sure he doesn't breed anymore!

(ps. to all Federal Agents - I'm just kidding )

"Inbred, bass ackwards country farts should be banned immediately, and everyone who tolerates them now should be made to replace them with a normal human being created from more than one family tree."

sorry, couldn't help myself.

ps - I was only joking and not trying to imply that all people from the South (or Alabama for that matter) are redneck inbreeders. I was only trying to have a laugh so please don't flame me.

I'm wagering that 20 years from now, drivers will be up in arms about whatever headlight system has replaced HIDs. It never stops.

I think we should eliminate headlights altogether, and only drive during the day.

I think the HIDs are great. They are much better than normal lights.

OK How many of you, fellow S2000 owners, would seriously replace your HID's with halogens if there was really a ban?

I know I wouldn't.

Start with SUV's headlights being brought down to bumper level. Then talk about my HID's. :flipoff:

I understand the frustration. I think that any lights that illuminate a sign almost a quarter of a mile ahead are too bright. On one hand, they are safer at night. but on the other hand, they are really distracting from behind and head on. both sides have legitimate arguments.
