For those of you with the Trucklites...
I've been looking into the Trucklites. I do a ton of small two lane highway driving at night. Are they bright enough that you have to deal with people flashing their brights at you to dim your lights, or is it not an issue? I would like brighter lights, I just don't don't want to go blinding everyone or have to deal with people hi-beaming me for no reason.
Thanks.

Thanks for the reply! I appreciate it. I do try to be conscientious of other motorists. I used to drive vehicles much lower to the ground, and therefore understand the pure hatred that can be generated by someone with a set of overly bright headlights.

I got the IPF conversion for $110, $50 for the bulbs, and about $100 bucks for the parts to make the harness ( including caps & diodes & connectors ) You can also get a harness ready made from Rally Lights. OK4WD also sells the Rally harness.

Are folks in the snow and ice areas having issues with the LED set ups not generating enough heat to remain clear?
I remember reading somewhere people were complaint about that. Can't remember which brand set up it was but it was LED.

From what I saw it is the Trucklites, but I would imagine it would be with any LED setup.

You know you can buy a complete TruckLite setup for $389 from Northridge, so you don't need $1000 to buy them.

At the far edge in front, the cutoff is sharp, and in a straight horizontal line.
No one has ever flashed at me. I aimed the lights so they hit a little bit below on-coming traffics' windshields.

What pray tell does TIPM stand for?
