I know they blind people because my friend did 6000k bulbs in his car and it blinded the crap out of me.
I installed 6K HIDs in my Scion xB and it too took a little work to install but it's done the right way and does not blind people to death. But it was much more than $70. I put a fused wire harness with two relays so the power draws directly from the battery. It has four ballest, two true hi/low beam HID bulbs. The headlights has the cover over the bulbs. So far no one has yet to flash me. After installing HIDs, I will never go back to standard halogens.
