However, I wonder what the other cars think whey the see the shoulder lit up like daylite...

Drove for over an hour because after reading these posts I wasn't 100% sure I could trust it. Never once got flashed, never once did my high beams "accidentally" blast oncoming traffic or another driver. I notice very defined edges to my light pattern though, which I did NOT ever see on my M235 with Adaptive Xenons.

Seems like there's many conflicting reports about GFHB on US cars, for both the Adaptive Xenons and LEDs.

I'm just going to code it in and see for myself. Worst case scenario I'll remove it.
