hello, you're right about the projectors, that the non xenon cars don't have projectors. that's why i ordered the H7R bulbs, this R type is designed for non projector lights to reduce glare. I've noticed inside the headlight housing, there's a metal shield of some sort sitting around the light bulb, i believe that's for glare too.

im sure the HID kit i've installed didn't produce a glare for sure. the color is quite crisp, from a distance away, i could still see the amber in the turning lights. (my friend had a toyota yaris with HID, it produces so much glare, at night when you drive towards it, it's like you're looking directly into the sun)
