Not sure how its cheeper on amazon, as eurocarparts supposed to be doing unto 50% off this weekend.

Good spot though and just ordered 2 sets, 1 for the polo and one in readiness for the GTI. I am collecting bits and have a long wait for the car, but never mind.

These are the older nightbreakers so they're clearing stock.
Well worth a punt at the price as they're only cornering lights and not the main bulbs. Bargain!

The bulbs themselves look the same to me as any other nightbreaker plus - perhaps they come in the older style packaging (clear double bubble card rather than the squashed cylinder packaging).
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

Washed the car and found a long very light surface scratch. Buffed right out with a bit of MER. Put my TDI-tuning.co.uk box up to max setting for a few days of fun running the tank down before I see what the unenhanced car does with standard diesel and not the V-power which I suspect has been the cause of my sh!te mpg and performance.

Osrams ordered earlier and seeing as it's raining I'm going to do the DAB station logos onto the SD in a minute then think about going to the pub (minus car!) as it's ages since I've been out for a pint!

Just driven the car to the cinema to see Thor 2. Great film, noticeably better than the first (which was still ok).

I ended up using the ones on the Volkswagen website as above.

They look a bit blurry on the screen but still prettier than empty black boxes...
