Non-Saab: Ridiculously expensive Xenon headlights.

A co-worker of mine has a GMC Jimmy with HID headlights. He was about 5,000 miles out of warranty last fall when one of his headlight units failed and needed replacement to the tune of $800 (no, that's no typo). Less than 6 months later the other unit has now also failed and the replacement parts have increased to $900. That's $1,700 to replace the headlight assemblies. How ridiculous is that.
I replaced the burnt-out headlight bulb on my 9-5 last weekend for $8.99. I think I'll stick with halogen.
