How many of you have had people get friggin upset cause they think you have your highbeams on. I understand it is bright but being a total idiot because of it is no excuse. This guy pulls in the next lane so I proceed ahead then he pulls behind me and turns on his highbeams and tails me. Got wife and kid in car so trying to stay calm. Continues for couple miles. Red light he pulls next to me and gives me the finger.....
So for the next 5 miles i follow behind with me real highbeams on. If onle the family wasn't with me. Sry so long jus had to get it off my chest.

really? that's a bummer...glad you gave him his own medicine back! I've never had anyone do it to me or mention it though...

happens to me kind of often too. I don't get mad though. And I like to show them that those weren't my high lights.

it always happens to me...the ironic thing is that when I had my HID PnP on, I only remembered getting flashed once, but when my retro was done i've already been flashed numerous times. One time it was three times in one night with my gf in the truck. Even she was wondering what was going on.

Now when I get flashed, I just flash them back.

I actually brought my truck in to the my Toyota Dealer and they said, it is a known issue. I'm just glad to know that it's not just me.

Have you guys tried adjusting the lights to point lower?

my lights are already positioned lower AND i lowered my truck. In my case, most cars are still in that perfect spot where the beam is concentrated from my projectors, and my truck still sits a bit higher then them so I still get flashed.

I even installed a 6k d2s in mines from a 4.3k. What bothers me is that if your going to flash your highs to me, at least do it when your still in front of me not when your passing by my drivers side door!

This has happened to me before especially at the NEX when i'm picking up my gf from work.
