Title: OSRAM launches new retrofit upgrade headlamps for VW Golf VI drivers
Post by: OSRAMUK on 01 September 2017, 10:33
OSRAM is launching a full retrofit upgrade headlamp set for VW Golf VI owners who want their cars to outshine all others.

The new LEDriving Xenarc Golf VI Black Edition headlamps give cars an instant, contemporary, road legal upgrade using powerful Xenon and state-of-the-art LED technology with a slick trendsetting design.

This Golf VI mod from the leading automotive original equipment lighting manufacturer (OEM) can boost lighting performance by as much as 70 percent compared to the standard halogen headlamp unit.

With plug and play installation which is easy to complete without modifying or damaging existing cables, these new forward lighting replacement headlamps are an ECE approved upgrade solution designed to appeal to car enthusiasts, garages and workshops and particularly VW specialists. The existing halogen headlamps can be replaced at home or in the workshop without the need for additional equipment or major reconstruction of the vehicle, to offer brighter, whiter light on the road.

The new LEDriving Xenarc Golf VI Black Edition headlamps are equipped with OSRAM Xenarc Original D8S HID Xenon bulbs for dipped and main beam and LED for daytime running lights, position lights and indicators. The LED indicator function also offers a dynamic or static light setting.

They provide a longer beam of light that reaches up to 20 metres further and a 40 percent whiter light compared to standard halogen headlamps, illuminating the road ahead for a more pleasant driving experience and more clearly exposing any dangers and obstacles.

These ECE-compliant (Economic Commission for Europe) upgrade headlamps, approved for UK road use, require no automatic headlamp levelling or headlight washer system which makes for a fast and straightforward stylish modification to today’s state of the art lighting technologies.

The LEDriving Xenarc Golf VI Black Edition can be pre-ordered through OSRAM Approved Partners from £749.99 inc VAT.

For more information on the new LEDriving Xenarc Golf VI Black Edition retrofit headlamps visit www.osram.co.uk/ledriving, or watch the trailer here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sV_qZ9sTB60

The LEDriving Xenarc Golf VI Black Edition gives the VW Golf VI a modern and dynamic look that is equipped with high-brightness Xenon and LED technology.

There's a dude on the MK6 Owners Club Facebook group doing a group buy for these. I think they're in the region of £730+ for a set though :laugh:

If I decide against a mark 7 R then these will most definitely have to be on the list following a remap.

Sorry, if you search enough I am sure they only made black for RHD. Ask that ebay seller to confirm

Yeah, pretty sure there are no red ones for RHD. I would like to get these, but £700 is just too much. If they were like £300-400 then maybe...

Borbus the xenon lights were over £1000 as an oem fitment but i know what you mean, unfortunately, the cheaper lights around £400 just dont have the same build quality...you get what you pay for in life!

They most certainly will be missing European approval.
By the time you add duties/tax and the courier's admin fee it'll be cheaper to buy the Osrams.
