Saw these in car and driver a while back but came across the site today

http://www.rayzerwidebeams.com/

cool idea and seems to work but $995!!!!

also i think the mounting wont work on the s2k since the windshield is quite vertical creating no depth behind the mirror...or i may be wrong

I dunno... the stock headlights on the S are pretty dope... kinda do that anyway. On something else it might be a nice thing to have.

Wouldn't it just blind people?

I could see it being useful for those night runs at the dragon - but for $1k? A bit excessive unless you do a LOT of night driving.

Cool find though.

Appears to be useful in sparsely traveled/populated areas.

I'll wait for the knockoffs to bring the price down to $99.95.

i've driven a good few times in non lit, sparsely traveled rural roads and the factory high beams work plenty well.
