no you wont. civic headlights do suck.. but if you aim it properly you wont blind anyone.

man, i only had my HID's for a month when i got pulled over by a cop saying that i had "blue lights" i thought it was more harassment than anything else. he let me go with a warning, and i told him that i would put my stock lights back btw, i have HELLA 4800k too...imagine if i had 6000k.

Hey Airbag Club if you've seen 4300k or better Phillips HID kits, how do you compare it to your HELLA 4800k HID kit?

If i had gotten the OSRAM 6000K HID Kit, then i WOULD have high beams, but it would shine blue instead of that purple ..... i rarely use high beams anyways, i'll just put stock blubs in when i do the state inspection
