They're still way too bright Frankie. Try getting your wife to drive your car and you drive her car and see for yourself. They need banning.

Many are far to bright. We all want the best headlights for ourselves but many aftermarket bulbs aren't suitable for all cars. Also when in a low car like a zed having someone right behind you with bright lights isn't much fun either.

It’s horrible when you get a car driving behind you with very bright lights As all you can see in your view mirror is a bright light , it seams to light the whole inside your Z up, it strains my eyes so I have to squint lol 😂

If a car travelling toward me dazzles, it gets the full high beam treatment; one hopes that eventually they will get the message. :(

Meeting them from the other direction is the worst of it.

Bright lights are a real pain as you get older and your eyes take longer to adjust, as mentioned above it doesn’t help being in a low car when everything around you seems to be growing in size !

especially when it's some tw*t in a SUV stopped right up my arse.
To be on the safe side, in that situation you should really get back in your car, Mikey. :D

+ my experience is that most drivers of cars with automatic transmissions keep their foot on that brake rather than engage N and handbrake at traffic lights. More dazzlement.
Many newer cars have 'auto hold' handbrakes. These leave the brake lights on when engaged. So it is the manufacturers' fault a lot of the time, not the drivers.

And on the subject of dazzling LEDs; both my road cars have matrix LEDs, so I don't care! :p

Old London taxis had lovely dim yellow headlights quite nice to look directly at.

What year is your Tacoma? I just bought a used one, a 2013 with 29,000 miles on it. The headlights on it aren't very bright. At first I thought my headlights weren't on. Did you replace your headlights with LED'S? I was able to find a 4x4 with a regular cab and a 6 foot bed, automatic trans. let's see if I can add a picture...

Mine is a 2023 , had a 2012 with 230K on it so I traded it in . My Tacoma came with LEDs , look on TacomaWorld , there are tons of options to do with lighting. Dont look around to much on there , it can get expensive. I like your single cab👍
