The light is fantastic and because I got the projector houseing the light is cut off very sharply as to not interfere with on coming traffic. If you put HID in the reflector housing the scattered light would be dangerous to on coming traffic. I have not really been able to test the high beams thoroughly, but from my initial test the are very bright and run with low beams simultaneously.

This thread cracks me up. Everyone is more interested in your camera and equipment you've used. However very little interest in your lights.

BTW, just purchased the lights. $259 is not a bad price.

Great looking pictures...

OK, now that you have my attention with a serious camera, I'm very impressed. No wonder you got the photographic results that you did.

Next question...a repeat of one that has already been posted...how is the performance and light pattern? Do you get people flashing at you because of the intensity?...and how are the HID's compared to the stock set-up? Your answers will probably prompt more questions, but lets go with those for now.

The HID far outperforms the stock lights. I used a projector housing that cuts of the light very sharply so not to interfere with on coming traffic. To do an HID upgrade with out the projectors would scatter the light and be dangerous to on coming traffic.
