| Wow, that is stupid as hell.
Not only risking the cops dragging your ass out of the car for a rough pat down you have the risk of pissing off whoever is behind you. |

| What the hell is a reverse HID?
HID's are annoying to people because most of the time they are aimed wrong or are installed in headlights not made for HIDs. If you retro-fit they have bad glare and flare. When ya got em though it looks amazing. Huge differnce in light output. (Only if you are smart and use 6k or lower though) | |

| Nothing but if you want a lot of usable light for driving you'd go with oem 4.3k or around 5k is closest to pure white. If you really want the most you go with 3k aka yellow.
If you want a bluish tint, you can go higher. But real HID's create the bluish tint because of
a. the lens they use b. the cutoff of the light inside the lens makes it blueish.
Ahh I get the reverse now that I got to watch the video. Thats just stupid and definitely a way to get pulled over.

| I have HIDs in non-hid headlights but I also have tinted headlights so it sorta cancels out eachother. | |

| They would work really well for you chris. Cause your car is small and I bet people get up on you really close. You could even put them on a motor and adj them so they shoot right into the cab. |

| Now just throwing this out there, but I'm pretty sure that's exactly the point of them, to avoid police. Looks like he has a switch to turn them on and off and that'd be pretty handy if a cop was chasing you to avoid him snagging your license plate... However if you got caught well have fun in jail forever | |
