If you fitted them into headlights designed for HID kits and the resultant light pattern they throw out, or retrofitted them with projector lenses, good for you.
If you fitted them to normal reflector style headlights that usually take normal halogen globes, congrats on being an idiot and blinding everyone else on the road...

Are nightbreakers the same as these?

Should i fit those? Or skip if i have normal halogen lamps?

It's actually to see the road better.
It helps allot, I would know
So nah, I don't believe that is stupid but SAFER.

Except that HID bulbs in halogen reflectors don't improve the light onto the road, it makes it worse. You want to believe they do, but physics doesn't agree.

Go put proper h1 halogen bulbs in your headlights, and drive 5 meters or so away from a wall. Look at how there are defined focal areas and cut offs. Then put in your poorly manufactured hid bulbs, and look at the mess now projected in the wall.

This one I am serious about, I can't stand cheapskates that fit useless rear seats in their club cabs. A double cab bakkie is already cramped in the back, you are just being silly by fitting a seat in a club cab.
