I agree with Majik. I have no problem at nite at all. Also, as someone earlier said, I have never been flashed while high beams were on, inadvertantly.

is adjusting the stock lights pretty straight forward? Mine are pointed a bit too low . I disagree with mahjik - the stock lights are pretty dangerous considering how i and many other people drive it even on city streets - and pedestrians can come out of nowhere.

Man, you would think that some government agency would have regulations on headlights so we don't all kill pedestrians out of nowhere.

I bet, in Mazda's quest to make the car lighter, the engineer's took it literately & reduced the amount of light the headlights produced. Yea, that's it!!

My wife's Ford is a 2001 & I don't see any better with it. I guess it must be dangerous to drive at night to. I better buy some blue tint light bulbs to fix it.

All kidding aside, as noted, the SilverStars work & are reasonably priced (unlike PIAA). They produce a "white" light. You don't "need" to buy a HID system.
