^^^ same here!
 

I'd like to see a picture of your light patterns against a wall. Unless you're questioning every driver you're passing (blinding), you can't really be sure that there's a problem. A picture of the beam against a wall is definitely a better source of qualitative evidence.

Quoting atc250r:
I have also had them in my GVR4 with 93 housings for years and never had anyone flash me over them. I made my own kit by re-basing a set of Acura bulbs but that shouldn't matter much based on what many here say about the glare they supposedly will cause. You have to be careful how you aim them, keep them a little on the low side to lessen any potential problem for other drivers. This wasn't an issue on my GVR4 but I did have to lower the aim on my truck when I put them in. IMHO, 4300K is the only way to go since its the closest to pure white. Higher = blue/purple and lower = yellowish, neither of which is ideal for seeing IMHO.

John has the right idea. Best output is the 4300K Philips D2S bulbs or IIRC they make 4000K D2S Plus. If they don't have 4300K as an option, 5000K is your next best bet.
