Headlights at High Speed........
I have a 99' GS400 and tend to have a heavy foot, late at night If I'm crusing at a good clip let's say around 100mph, I find that the headlamps (HID) don't throw enough light far enough ahead of me.......
Has anyone added any type of projection lights to the car to remedy this, or can the headlights be adjusted to throw light further down the road......
Anyone else have this problem...........or a cure..........

Of course, raising the aim of your HIDs may annoy oncoming traffic a bit (understatement), plus the low beam reflector is designed to produce a lower, wider dispersion pattern which raising the aim point will not affect. So you still aren't likely to get the desired illumination farther down the road or, at least, not as far as you need it for 100 mph.
Might check the PIAA site for driving lights that can be added on or "search" the Lighting forum.............

. Upgrade the high beam bulbs to a better/brighter brand if that's not enough for you.
