These lights are great, but the HID flashing/rage is really getting old. I just did a 2hr drive home last night from a trip, half on a 2 lane road. I got flashed about 10 times on the 2 lane road section, and it was actually pretty smooth. Every one of them got brights right back at them so maybe they will learn these aren't brights. One of them was someone who slowed down from the speed limit of 45 to about 30, let me pass them, and then proceeded to bright light me from about 2 car lengths. I slowed down and they got scared and pulled over.

This crap is getting really old. I talk to people who own BMWs and Audis and they don't have it this bad. Honda has got to be thinking about changing something to protect customers from "road rage". I'm afraid one day I'm going to read a post about someone being shot at.

Guys:

Get your local Honda dealer to adjust the HID's! I was getting flashed back when I originally purchased my Stook and at time I had folks giving me a friendly one finger wave!

Had it adjusted (FREE, under warranty) and I can see better now that the lights have been adjusted and no one flashes me anymore!

Do this because it would be very unfortuante to have some loser follow you into a shopping center and key the hell out of your car because he/she (yes, the ladies are not above keying a car) thinks you were "showing off" in your Stook!
