    What you're looking for is the appropriate ballast for it. "HID kits" usually comes with a bulb AND a ballast so if you simply bought the bulb, wag ka na tumipid and purchase the ballast.

    But with all due seriousness, even if you have a glare shield. It will only bar the direct output throw.. which is counter-intuitive in a lighting scenario is because you want it as far as you can go (if not, we'll all be driving with our fogs which has a very short throw lang). Not to mention that glare isn't just the direct scattering of light but also the surrounding areas -- the roads, puddles, etc. these will REFLECT the glare.

    What I simply suggest is use better halogen lights.. like Osram Nightbreakers as direct replacements for stock lighting.
    Hope this will help you in your decision.

    Since 2008 or 09 pa. 1.2k kuha ko. Medyo humina na ng konti ang buga, but still better than stock halogen.

    bought ONB+ few months ago and mas okei kesa stock bulbs,
    mas gusto ko din kulay ng buga nya, mas whiter ng kaunti kesa stock bulb,
    but not as white as HIDs.

    i have 3M medium black tints sa harap, and i see things clearly padin naman at night.
    thou 20/20 vision padin ako.

    Where did you buy it? They installed it already?

    Cartronics del Monte.

    Be sure to get Osram Night Breaker "Plus",
    according to reviews, the "plus" correlates to
    a longer burning life versus regular ONBs.

    Sir, baka po heavily tinted ang windshield ninyo kaya di kayo makakita nang maayos. Have it remove or replaced with a lighter shade. If kulang pa rin, get those NB's

    Di gaya ng mga gunggong na nagtitipid at bibili ng hid na mura pang motor na single bulb lang. Minsan halogen at hid pinagsama, pero wala pa din umbrella to simulate the low beam .
    Still not that good. May glare pa rin yan telescopic HIDs. Retrofit pa rin ang best and long term solution

    May be Philips X-tremeVision is better in your case. Color temp is a bit lower than Osram NBP and a bit brighter too.

    i would go for the ONBs.
    More visibility compared to HIDs, imho.
    I've tried both, and I went back to the ONBs.
