I haven't, but then again my HID's are 5000K (not the extreme blue or purple 10000K+), and I covered up the squirrel spotters so it's much less blinding to on coming traffic.

I got Nokya 2500k fogs and 8000k HIDs and havent gotten pulled over...if a cop wants to pull u over they will find a reason to pull u over. I got pulled over by university police for having clear lenses in my rear tail lights and they come like that stock. lol. He just said to take it back to the dealer I was laughing.
