    This is the best car channel on KZread, and I say this mostly because every other car channel on KZread is the same. They're loud, too obnoxious and cocky, they love to clickbait, and they're too desperate to grab the viewers attention. You're different because you always keep it real, your attitude is always calm, videos are always chill and very high quality, and the fact that you're straightforward and to the point. Keep up the great content 👍

    @@tylermajeski2902 If you look at the light pattern against the garage you can see light projected up above the cutoff line. There are several lines of light and some dim patterns. These are glare. You can also see the glare when the camera is looking at the headlights. The whole reflector is lit up and you can see the glare around the edges of the headlight lens. This is why LEDs are bad in halogen housings. My LED projectors don't have light above the cutoff so they don't glare. While the ones he installed are better than a lot of the ones I have seen, the visible glare patterns on the garage would keep me from installing these LED bulbs in my personal car. He did adjust them, which many people don't, but he can't solve the glare issue because of the design of the reflector behind the bulb.
