I suggest running PIAA Xtreme white bulbs in your light, and get a set of PIAA driving lights. Make driving at night no big deal at all. PIAA bulbs are also all legal wattages, at least the ones they sell in the US. They are super bright and a good color. I try to run the same series bulb in all my lights, aux and head, so that the color is uniform.

As far as the glare if you keep you instrement lights as bright as possible the glare isnt as bad, I prefer to dim mine on empty roads for better night vision. I also try to look past the rigs, but glare happens. I really enjoy night driving for some reason ...

I also enjoy night driving almost more than day driving. What I hate is anyone with HID lights. I dont care if they are installed correctly, as soon as any care is bouncing over bumps, thats alot of HID in your eyes!

ive got mine tinted to 30% on the front and let me tell you, there is no glare from other vehicles that makes those nice little star bursts anymore, 50% would prob. be good if you just wanted glare reduction, and still be easy enough to see out of

Do you wear glasse's? If so they do make a coating they put on ar add into the mix which reduces glare.

I have this on my spec's. and it doe's seem to help.

I still hit deer, [ see my sig. line ] the deer are thick up here.
