Question: Who makes the BEST HID headlights?

So I know no matter the outcome of my xB , Fix, or start new again, I'm going to need some new HID headlights. So I ask all of you,

In your Opinion, who makes the best HID headlights, do they make them for an 08-09 xB? And why are they best?

Yup. Go with MobileHID. Not only is he a good guy but the shipping is fast! I bought a set of from someone else and it was crappy. Clif is the only one to go when u need HID.

When you order be sure to order from the Scion life site........pretty sure in this topic there is the link.........if you do that you get a discount........if you go directly to the site you do not get the discount........at the bottom of the link is a link that says $170 shipped......click that and it takes you to the purchase page with all the choices.....

MobileHID for the price and value.

For the best quality though, check out Philips, but they cost quite a bit more...

Probably any of the newer HIDs that are digital and have the 50-55 watt balasts.... That being said, I do have the Mobile HID ones that are analog and 35W.

Retrofit would be nice but too spendy. Phillips and Pilots are spendy too. I would love to do a retrofit on mines. But I would probably F up my healights and be forced to buy new ones. lol.
