Default Love these xenons!

Driving on a two lane twisty back road last night. During about a 20 min drive I had two people pull over in front of me so that I could go by! Sure clears the lanes on the highway too. No one seems to want them in their rear view mirror, which is fine by me On a serious side I began wondering if the aiming was off, but it seems to me that the light cutoff is fairly low (maybe even too low for my taste). Anyone ever have any issues with the aiming being off?

P.S. anyone here going to the show in Boston this weekend? if so see you there!

I've noticed that too, and I'm actually pretty good about NOT tailgating people. No one's pulled over yet, but everyone you ask about xenons (who doesn't own them) will tell you they're damn obnoxious & too bright. Frankly, when I've encountered them on other cars they just seem blue & that's all. Because most of them are self-leveling they tend to be less-likely to shine in my mirror or in my eyes.
Ming - you probably saw the other (more recent) thread about the cutoff being lower on the driver's side & that's the way it's supposed to be. I do agree that it seems low sometimes compared to the plain old halogens on my GLX.
