Default Anyone have reviews of Xenith Xenons?

I'm contemplating a set up plug n play HID's for my truck. I didn't know where to post this here since it's not a Honda so I figured it would get the most views here. Anyway I saw they were a sponser on this site and selling some. I like how he got back to me quickly and everything and the few things I read in their forsale thread were mostly good. Basically just wondering if anyone can vouch for the quality of them?

The biggest thing that worries me is he says they are made in China where most guys seem to say to try and find ones made in Germany or Japan. However at the same times guys seem to like his kits so idk.

Also is it worth the $175 to be putting them into stock headlights? From what I've read the shields they have seem to help with the glare so it doesn't blind everyone as badly and I was told to aim them downward. I guess the reason I'm afraid to spend this money is I've wanted them for a while but after being in my uncles Prius with them I was sort of unhappy with how they were. The lit up the sides of the road better but that was about it. Sure they were better than the headlights in my truck but the ones in the 06 Accord were almost as good. Atleast thats how it seems. They just weren't as great as I was expecting. It for a while made me not want a set but now I've really started wanting a set again and am hoping I will love them but I have a feeling I will be let down.

Basically just want to know if it's worth the money to put them in without a retrofit and if that company is any good and if they have quality products? Thanks guys.

Why not just get some PIAA headlight bulbs?

Since my truck has the same bulb for high and low beams I want a bi xenon kit which raises the price to $175. Are they worth the money or should I just stick with my halogen bulbs?

Plug and play kit FTL

You should Retrofit OEM HID projectors.
Search around here for retrofits and you'll understand
