    nung sinilip ko teenager ang driver nag open ng window galit na galit
    i opened my window too tapos nginitian sya na ngiting aso then went on my way
    Serves him right, siya pang may ganang magalit... di talaga marunong magicip ang loko.
    Aba Ok pala tong Hela. Mas maganda siguro pag Hela + HID combo, bulag sigurado mga ogags na yan

    glaring talaga ang HID. basta ang housing na ginamit ay yung stock. imho maling decision talaga bumili ng HID. guilty po ako diyan. kahit na nakababa na ang setting pag nasa hiway parang naka bright talaga. lalo na kung malayo pa kayo na magkasalubong. :car:

    i always noticed that whenever i visit the philippines...nakakasakit nga ng ulo kasi hindi ako sanay na sinisilaw on the road my dad has a 1,000,000 candlepower searchlight that he shines directly into the windshield of the worst offenders, hehe.

    you might want to try that - you could probably get it from a law enforcement or fire/rescue supply place (medyo mahal yata, but you can always use it during brown-outs ) konting ingat-aksidente nga lang, since you will not be able to see anything for a full 5-10 minutes if it's shined directly into your eyes...

    sir, bawal na dito yung HID without a self-leveling mechanism...for the exact purpose of not blinding other motorists

    M54, naisip ko na rin bumili ng malakas na flash lite pero sasayangin ko lang pera sa kanila

    hirap kasi dito sa pinas basta marunong na magpaandar ng oto at may pang-lagay may Lisensya agad kahit walang alam sa road rules & courtesy. tapos ang yayabang pa... ogags naman.

    minsan nga naisip ko rin na mag kalas nug airsoft gun na plastic pabala... then hide the nozzle sa ilalalim ng bumper then nakatutok sa side ng oto. then may trigger switch ka sa console...pag magkatabi na kayo...POW... yupi oto nya yayaman mga nag PDR nyan...

    Iluvdetailing,

    yung self leveling mechanism is a feature in most luxury cars that adjust the beam level of the headlites... minsan kasi pag may sakay ka 3 person medyo baba yung rear ng car so your headlites aim a little higher... so with a leveling maechanism pwede mo ibaba yung aim ng lites... my car has it, i think the cefiro has it too...

    ILD - it's a mechanism that aims the HID at the proper angle depending on factors like the weight/ride height of the car and the level of the road. all factory HID systems have it.

    on my bmw for example, when you start the car and immediately turn on the lights, the beam points downward and gradually moves upward as it finds the ideal angle for the lamps.

    the 'cut-off' point for the beam should project out as far as possible without going into the windshields of the drivers on the horizon

    level indicator lang yun, Promdiboy. yung mechanism kasi...its a motor that can controll the reflector of your headlites' aim... in my w126 its vacuum controlled and i have 4 preset settings sa dash switch...

    wala pa ako nakita na may level indicator sa headlites na oto...

    eto pang tapat ko sa naka HID and ayaw mag bigay ng low beam.

    IPF170/100 sa headlights and sa aux lights ko for a total of 680watts, for a cost of less than a HID system.

    i admit to this...pero original fogs mounted correctly dont do glare sa straight,but,fog beam pattern's pakalat and downward..i use this kasi mataas ang van and the headlights has limited downward lighting...para makita ko ung road directly infront of me...

    aux high beam ko does my long-range lighting...

    Ako rin, every night I have to live with idiots who use their HIDs on the road. Kahit naka-low beam eh nakakasilaw pa rin. Come on, not even my stock halogens are that glaring at low beam. Sakit na sa ulo ang night driving. The next time I take an eye exam, huwag naman sanang bumaba ang visual acuity ko dahil sa p***** i**** mga 'yan. Such a meaningless device should have been declared outright illegal, IMO.

    HIDs are liable under violation 76 of the LTO: "Glaring front or rear body parts and/or sporting dazzling accessories". Masyado lang maliit ang penalty para sa mga gumagamit nito, dapat mga three times the cost of their HID sets ang multa para magtanda.
