[SVT3658]

Removing the shield will make it like you have your high beams on all the time (since the E55 projector in MACHs is a bi-xenon projector and it pulls the shield out of the way when you turn the high beams on). If you remove it, you'll be blinding oncoming traffic all the time.

So yeah, it'll seem like you're getting better light output (kinda), but all you'll really be doing is shining light higher and pissing off other motorists
