February 27th, 2007 03:36 PM #13Using these very bright lights would really be a big advantage for the driver especially when travelling at night. However, one should be responsible also for the safety of the other driver by making sure that the beams are properly oriented so as not to cause any inconvenience on the other driver or worse involve in an accident caused by this.
Yung iba kasi makasunod lang sa uso kahit wala sa lugar.

I think matagal pa bago magkaroon ng law on proper use or modification of automotive lighting dito. Bago un, dapat madisiplina muna mga motorista in the existing road laws especially PUV/PUJ drivers.

March 6th, 2007 02:42 PM #16we have hid's on our 60 series land cruiser. honestly i think you need the proper lenses for hid's to work effectively. i forgot how many kelvins our hid's have but i really do not like it too much.
these are just some of my observations when i use the land cruiser.
hid's don't seem to light up asphalt (dark colored roads) very well specially in the rain.
other drivers seem to be bothered by the glare as they would often flash their brights as they approach me. (honestly speaking, i think it is dangerous specially on national highways like mac arthur as these drivers can collide head on with me because the glare from the hid's are too bright and as bright as the hid's are, when they hit their brights, the approaching lights car can also be blinding to me)
for off-road, i wouldn't advise hid's unless you have other lights (yellow) to supplement the road conditions.
for now, i seem to prefer 100w h4 bulbs as these seem to perform better in all weather and all-road conditions specially when off-road.

March 7th, 2007 12:29 AM #17Stock HID/Xenon headlamps (part of vehicle's standard features) are 100% okay.
But as for the aftermarket/mod ones, be careful kasi some of them are way too bright. Ang silaw ng mga ito ay masyadong malakas at naging sagabal din sa mga ibang nagmamaneho.
Take this into consideration when installing HID/Xenon lamps on your vehicle. Do that and you'll be just fine

NOPE... it is illegal if you don't have a projector housing for it... the LTO already has a fine/penalty for glaring lights.
MMDA warns vs modified headlights
Monday, November 5, 2007 The Metro Manila Development Authority (MMDA) warned motorists yesterday against using vehicles with modified headlights, which can cause accidents on the road.
Green, blue, and bright white headlights have become popular among car owners who dress up their vehicles.
Officials said it is against traffic rules to use green or blue halogen headlights because they can distract other drivers and even blind those approaching them.
MMDA general manager Robert Nacianceno said traffic enforcers should flag down these vehicles and issue violation tickets to the owner.
According to him, private cars are not allowed to modify headlights, which are supposed to be checked during motor vehicle inspections at the Land Transportation Office (LTO).
MMDA traffic enforcers are expected to impose stricter rules against halogen headlights due to complaints raised during a radio program.
“Law enforcement agencies can apprehend,” Nacianceno said, adding that local traffic enforcers can also do the same. – Michael Punongbayan
