I consider the HIDs to be adequate. The don't reach very far, but no car I have ever driven at night provided light for much more than a car length or 2 in front of me. I also go brights when possible. Even then they are just okay.

I keep mine set a 2 where there is oncoming traffic next to me. I go 1 on the highway.

But also the issue is that oncoming traffic (crossovers and trucks) blind me. So even if I had good lights it wouldn't matter. My vision goes blank and takes 5-10 seconds to recover after passing an oncoming car away.

I don't drive a night much anymore.
