3. Retrofits in the alero: Glare isn't THAT bad. They are drivable. You will notice significantly better lighting. I think I only ever got flashed once running this way for about a year. Get 4100K bulbs. Nothing more than 5000K. They all look white anyways without projectors.

i dont really agree with this, with both silverstars, and then philips vision plus, i got flashed nightly, because of the excessive glare.

i'll have to post pictures sometime of my VW light cutoff, no projector, just stock halogen setup. the difference is like night and day.

^ I think part of that has to do with inconsistency in the light housing construction for the Aleros. My Drivers headlight had a WAY better beam than my passenger side. Luckily the passenger side was f*cked up in a way that shed less light up (it lit up the road 2 feet infront of the car REAL good... and yes I had it aimed properly).

One of the glare shields on mine was crooked and I had to fix it when I cleared my headlights as well.
