All the lights are week altogether, aftermarket is normally the better way to go, but I have herd good and bad about aftermarket lighting..
Factory Accessories, well... you really dont need any at all. What do you want you xA to look like? Do you want to Mod? More power? Anything you want can be done aftermarket. But I would get the following from the dealer
Cruise Control
Cargo Net
Rear Spoiler
Strut Bar
Cold Air Induction
DO NOT BUY SCION SECURITY! It is a wast of money, go for a Viper Alarm, most come with Keyless Entry and a kickass system :twisted:
As far as what to get after you buy your car.. I would lower it 1.5-2.0 inches and get some 17" or 18" wheels and a nice muffler. Then you got you self on sweet xA

DON'T BUY THE INTAKE FROM THE DEALER
you can get it cheaper from other sources for a lot less. i would just get the cargo mats and cover in the xA and if you want the spoiler then get it. other then that there is really no need for anything else.

I'm really enjoying my 6 disc MP3 player. . . I thought it as well worth it.
Oon interior details, you could probably be better off with aftermarket, personally I hate dealing with junkie parts and bad installations. . . neons not working, cracked tubes, etc. YOu can get aftermarket LED tubes too but. . .
I like the idea that my accessories will nearly last forever. But yes, they are STILL way overpriced.
