LED headlamp daytime visability
Has anyone else noticed that cagers barely notice you when passing cross streets where they have the stop sign? They about turn right in front of me. It seems ever since I installed the HD LED headlamp this is becoming a problem or since its summer people in my town are driving like idiots, idk.

You might be right. I definitely notice a difference when I'm using running lamps & headlight during the day. With both Running & Headlamps lighted, get a lot less A-Holes pulling out on me from cross streets & intersections.
I don't personally know much about the LED Headlamps. Are they somewhat directional? Meaning is it significantly brighter from a straight on view vs. offset view from the side? Sorta like HID Projectors? If so, that may be the issue.

Glad you posted this. I have 8K HID in the 'Busa and it works great, very distinguishable and bright. Installer said the bucket in the HD was to small for HID install and suggested I look into LED as an option. Appears they don't to get you noticed enough though. Maybe I'll look into larger buckets for HID.

yep ...i notice this too. i tilted my led up a little for more visibility. but it is def not as noticable during day unless viewed from straight on.
if you see any new audis or bmws driving around with their xenon projector headlights you kind of see same thing. side visibility is low ...straight on is bright white so, this is not unique to our led lights.
....but, obviously we have much less surface area/size
