Subject:Re: HIDs on a Vanagon?

HID done right is vastly superior to halogen.� The factory HIDs in my
wife's Touareg are pure white with no visible blue content at all - I
would say the color is in the 4000K range.� I can see much better
with these lights than I can with a slightly yellow halogen.� The
Touareg and most other OE HID systems have an auto-levelling system built
in that keeps them aimed correctly at all times.� I never experience
people flashing me at all in the Touareg.� My former Golf Country
that I converted the low beams to HID recieved the occasional person who
flashed me.
