What is better, HID Conversion or Retrofit?
I have a 07 silver honda fit and just picked up a 08 blue fit. Question is, what would be better and easier? An HID bi-xenon conversion or a retrofit? Also, which one is more difficult? Thanks in advance guys...

Retrofit:

You be the judge.

Retrofit will be more time consuming, more expensive, but IMO worth it.
