I doubt this is as much of an issue in Europe, but here in the States the headlights of the average pavement princess (large truck that hasn't ever seen a day of work) shines directly into the rearview mirror of a regular height car. Nothing aftermarket at all, just stupidly large vehicles being a nuisance.

I still prefer halogen bulbs because they're so inexpensive to replace, while if your LED goes bad it's gonna be expensive costly.

    i see no actual reason why LED lamps should still be more expensive than halogen, that just sounds like companies fleecing you

    Because with LED any issue requires a new lamp, the whole thing. With halogen bulbs you can simply replace the bulb or malfunctioning piece and it'll cost significantly less. Had a clip break on an LED and the only fix was a whole new assembly.
