Its not thats its 12,000K that makes it hard to look at, its that its full of glare and seemingly not aimed. Its illegal if anything, because of the way its setup, it'll blind oncoming drivers becaues it basically just a ball of purple light.

Thats the problem w. aftermarket HIDs, they rely on the individual purchasing them to alter the housing or aim the HIDs in some way so that they seem stock/street-legal. Usually they just aim them in a way that gets them the most road coverage, at the expense of other drivers vision.

HID's drastically increase lighting output by over 300%. They do look cool as hell, but they make driving at night alot more safer because you can see the road better.
