I keep seeing on other forums how people drop in LED or HID bulbs into incandescent housings and take photos proving how much more light they have and how great an upgrade it is. When it is pointed out the lack of a cut off, the glare to other drivers, the illegality, the extreme ignorance really shines through by the responses.
As someone with anger issues, and who gets infuriated when blinded by such drivers, I don't always respond in a manner to get the point across that their 'upgrade' is illegal, unsafe and dangerous.
I don't write as well as Virgil, and obviously do not have the Knowledge or background to convince others, but I'd love to be able to link to a Concise Sticky here that might convince some of these 'upgrade' nitwits that they are compromising their own, and other's safety through their sheer ignorance about how Vehicular lighting is designed to work.
Or is it folly to even bother trying, due to human nature and the current overwhelmingly narcissistic zeitgeist?
