Xeons vs. AAC

Looking to add HIDs to my LS. I want both the low and high beams. Is this a good alternative to the AAC kit for $225?

http://www.xenithxenons.com/product_p/gen-kit.htm

This kit reuses the current housing. I'm not sure if its any good or not. I would be going 6k as I want a white look not blue, those blue lights annoy the crap out of me when I see them. Any help and input on this is appreciated. Thank you!

Wheres it need to be moved to? This is the lighting section so I assumed this would be appropriate.

One big difference is the price lol. Both will use your factory housing. There are members here using xenith xenons. I have yet to hear of any problems. Just remember both price might be for single beams. The cost is higher for the hi/low kits.

Yea. single for Xeon is like $60 i think for hi/low it $99 but still way cheaper then the $225 AAC wants. I was more curious to see if there was a significant difference in quality of light but I mean if its basically the same thing or hardly noticeable I will go with the cheaper ones and save sme $$ for my exhaust. Thanks.

If you go the AAC path you're lights are warrantied for life. That right there is worth the extra money to me

I run cheaper HIDs and are more them happy with them. I even sent a members here a free set of bulbs when he ordered the wrong ones. The other people wouldn't swap them out for him. He was more then happy with the hid bulbs I sent him.

Wow thank you AAC. I will probably go w/ you now, youve pretty much sold me. I just need to wait to get some $$ saved up so I can afford them now. Thanks again!
