Default Need to replace my driver headlight,should I replace both?

And what's the best deal on them? I really would like to convert to HID's if possible. My driver light seal is apparently toast and I thought if I replaced one it would look bad,so I want to get both and then sell my OEM good pass side one to offset the cost. Suggestions on headlight assys? Hid kit?

HiD kits are easy to fit. With basic car knowledge.
There's a few How To:'s about

HOW TO: HID Headlight Upgrade - New Beetle Owners Club

When replacing one side, your other light will look misted.
As the glass/plastic lenses tend to loose their shine overtime.

I switched mine over when i lost one of the lenses, you could
tell the other lense was new up close. Apart from that who looks
up that close unless your showing

Those Halo lights look good on Bugs
