So you think HID headlights are cool?

If you get moisture in your headlight in your Ford, $150 new headlamp assembly, and a headlight bulb $5 if that. $155 plus tax your done. You think Acura TL's are cool with thier HID headlamps? $568.63 for a headlamp, $215.07 for the xenon hid bulb that blew, $242.56 for the ignitor that got 'wet', $284.02 for the control unit that got fried because of it. $1310.28 plus tax, and that is just for ONE side. And yes they are very common to get moisture. Be happy you don't have true HID's.

i've had HID's for 4 years...almost 5...no problems yet.

never a prob with my S2k too. There was always replacements on ebay from yards on the cheap just in case.

Everything from the dealer is expensive. Thats how they stay in business lol.

yeah i was in a nissan dealer for work picking up a part and the parts guy was telling customer infront of me how if he wanted to add HID's to his car it would be roughly a 1800 dollar option

sounds like you got fucked.

I just work at Acura, and these are prices customers pay, they are very common to break due to moisture in the headlight on the newer style TL's, wholesaler prices are cheaper by 40% and my price is 60-70% cheaper.

HIDs > Halogen.
