Default HID or driving lights?

My daughters 99 Monte sucks *** for being able to see at night. I already did a full headlight resto on it, and it helped, but its not like my 04 Silverado or the wife's XA, so what can I do? Im considering either some DDM 35 HIDs or some white driving lights, thoughts? I know I want the HIDs on my trucks, but I dont know how the Monte will handle them and how they will look and if they will blind people and all that, help!

there are quite a few members on here with HID's that are pretty pleased. I'm not on the wagon yet, however i'm about as close to ordering them as you can get.

Are you trying to melt the paint off the cars in front of you.

HID's are the way to go. I never even use my high beams because the low's are so bright.
