Has anyone seen this? I just noticed this on a couple of cars in the past week or so. Is this some after market shite on ghetto rides or what?

I’m not sure that’s what you’re seeing. But motorcycles have had aftermarket modulating headlights as a safety option for a long time but you are only allowed to use it during the day.

So turn down the treble and front your bass so your car can be heard almost anyplace.

I thought that was an effect of a loose wire connection.

I’ve noticed this too. Always attributes it to a loose bull shaking in the housing. It is extremely distracting, and frustrating if it is intentional.

Look at me!!!

Or conversely to aggravate the crap out the rest of us. I've seen the effect on big rigs and I realize that yeah the hood shakes independently from the rest of the vehicle.

It's not aftermarket or necessarily ghetto.

Usually just broken/defective grill/headlight assembly...that someone is to lazy to fix.

A lot of times I think it's aftermarket lights or cars not put back together right after a wreck.

Mine do this on my work truck but that’s because one of the mounting brackets is broken
