The rest of the times, and especially in rural irish roads - its a godsend. If I had more time/will I would still put 2 extra Hella Comets or other swedish-style dishes with power output equall to small village, just because. But in fairness I find combination of xenon opened shutter + Nightbreaker high beam bulb great enough and supplementing itself perfect.
just so I understand, the bi xenon open shutters, is just when using Full Beam. But instead of being only the full beam bulb, it lights up yr dipped beam projector with the shutter open? So as with full beam u have to click it off to avoid dazzling oncoming traffic?

I'm considering the mod again
