Silver_blade Turbocharged June 4, 2007 Share June 4, 2007 If it really happened, it should only affect those PI's cars with retro-fitted ones. Those with factory-fitted ones shouldn't be affected at all...otherwise it would be silly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djcoolmax 2nd Gear June 4, 2007 Share June 4, 2007 Don't mean to sound bad but one could always revert to the originals lamps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charliebrown 2nd Gear June 4, 2007 Share June 4, 2007 yeah, it was in the ST some 3/4 weeks ago. According to TP/LTA, HID lights are illegal. Mostly refitted by PI. They are irritating anyway! Singapore streets so bright, why need them. Crazy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyousuke Neutral Newbie June 4, 2007 Share June 4, 2007 In the sixties when Halogen bulbs started to replace normal incandesant bulbs, people were also complaining about overly bright headlamps shinning into their eyes. With the invention of parabolic and complex refector lamps, this problemis no longer an issue. Similairly, there is nothing wrong with HID. A properly fitted HID is not glaring nor blinding. In fact, on a factory fitted projector HID, you can easily make out the cut off line of the beam. EU regulation for HID are very strict. What I suspect LTA would be using them as a benchmark. 1) The headlamps must be correctly aligned according to the regulations. 2) The vehicle must be fitted with an automatic headlamp leveling system. 3) The vehicle is fitted with an automatic headlight cleaning system. Without such the dirt acts as a diffuser for the light and distributes it in areas beyond the prescribed range. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mwei Neutral Newbie June 4, 2007 Share June 4, 2007 It's kinda ridiculous. Not that I'm running on HID, but there're many out there who paid a premium (thousands of dollars) just to upgrade their stock Halogens to HID (OEM) from their agents. Especially those 3 series bimmers and mercs. Find this move unfair. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitvip Supersonic June 4, 2007 Share June 4, 2007 If it is true, they are making the right move! Keep it up TP! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyousuke Neutral Newbie June 4, 2007 Share June 4, 2007 LTA wouldn't ban those. Else might as well ban all Lambos, Ferraris, Aston Martin and Posches. They don't have Halogen options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
