Second, the HID DRL lights would hit even lower on the ground so they certainly wont blind anybody on the road.

First, I made no mention of your headlights whatsoever. Second, If you think HID's won't blind you and everyone else, then you have never used HID's in dense fog and you are fooling yourself. But you can do that. You're a big boy. Having driven in dense mountain fog often, I just thought I would share my experience. But rental vehicles need to look spiffy. Do whatever you like. Just don't expect to get anywhere in dense fog with HID"S for fog lights!
