New Owner - First time driving automatic

[Fummins]

Welcome! I don't like having blinding headlights either but it seems even oem led and/hid lights are obnoxiously bright. The worst has got to be cars with drive around with the auto-dim feature, (mainly Kia's) they wait til they're 10' away before diming.

If you can't beat em, join em. The headlights in my truck were terrible, I installed some Led headlight bulbs and they work great. I'm sure I'd be facing 10 years in jail in other countries though. The only problem is I think the wiring might be wrong or they're aimed way too high. High beams are useless and low beams work great. I should probably fix that.

I find pretty much any headlight behind me(in the Mirage) is annoying so I leave the rear view mirror in "night mode", again that'd probably be get me 20 years of jail time in Foama's country.

Welcome, Eric!

@inuvik: Mine is a 2014 with 55/60W H4 bulbs. With the stronger sort 80/100W H4 bulbs, that BTW are illegal here, would not the plastic parts of the headlight assy become heat-damaged in the long run?

I was initially worried about that also but after almost daily usage after months of being installed no damage or issues.

Maybe your veloster engine identifies as a Mirage engine?

Ds mode would, in the current state, put the veloster in a could of dust lol. Engine shaking so hard it's trying to mimic a 3 cylinder for sure :P
