This results in a large amount of glare for other drivers on the road, and less usable light for your buddy to see where he is going at night.

They look good and present no problem to other drivers...He sees fine at night and I see him driving to the shop every morning from a 1/4 mile away (in every season) and there's no glare of any sort....Ebays not half bad if you find the right vendor.
