Default HID's?

So I am getting ready to pull the trigger on ordering a 2013 SCREW Eco Lariat. I am trying to decide if I should spend the extra $$ on the HID's. adding the HID's in my case pushes me from the 501 to the 502a pkg and adds about $1300. Of course the 502a adds nav and moon among other things Tat are not as important. I really like the looks of the HID'S but are they that much better?

Yes, get the factory HIDs. It is much easier than doing a swap and just the parts alone to swap OEM HID headlights is over $1000.

I'd say the navigation is more worth it than the HIDs. I never thought much of having factory navigation until I bought a car that just so happened to have it. now I don't think I could ever go back to not having it.

check the box 502 A!

Since mine is a 12, no HID's obv but use the nav all the time and even when not using for navigation it gives you Sirius Travel link to look at weather maps etc. Its the P-schizzel!!
