the only way to prevent glare is a retrofit as I did the kit first then tinkered with it for a month then broke down and retrofited and never looked back.

i have 9005 conversion silverstars aimed low and i still give off mad glare, HIDs in reflectors will undoubtedly produce massive glare

Either not HID or its H4 headlights... H4 housings are very easy to get no glare with because the kits already come with a shield on them. Output still sucks though.
