| New hid headlamps have very little light to see above a certain height depending on road terrain. as example when going downhill you cannot see the lanes in upcoming uphill grades. the lack of elimination in the area above the horizontal projection, prevents seeing road signs, lane changes, and pedestrians if you are traveling at a downhill angle on your approach. my car, 2009 mazda 6, has adjustment to raise projection depending on weight of passengers in back seat, but these new lights in my opinion are still unsafe when driving at night. i spoke to service department at dealer to inquire about possibly changing out these lights for some other type, but he said he had same problem when driving his vehicle at night. this headlight design is being added to more vehicle makes and is making night driving a safety issue that needs to be addressed for all new cars using this design. these new headlamps are worthless on hilly terrain. since the service department person agreed and there is no apparent fix, i believe this will result in more night accidents. *tr | |||
