I haven't taken it on the road at night yet, but it does seem to be a bit more scattered in the parking --

Those pictures belong in a handbook why HID bulbs in headlamps intended for halogen bulbs are illegal, at least here in Europe that is.

Yep, there are advantages to living in a the third world.

then again, you don't have to dodge drunk pedestrians crossing unlit highways, cows/sheep/goats/kudus wandering into the roads, esp at night, etc.  --

You mean, you just don't dodge them down there?
That is bad for your bodywork

Haha, no, we dodge them, or at least try to.

But we've had so many near misses with drunk pedestrians on the main highway in Cape Town that we now avoid going into the city at night. The last time we went to the opera, we ended up dodging about 5-6 drunk men staggering across the 3-lane N2 highway.

It's very hard to see pedestrians not wearing reflective clothing on unlit highways. And that was in the Audi with Xenons, we only managed to avoid them because I noticed that the rear lights of the preceding car had been blocked. --
