Vorsprung durch Technik is German for advantage through technology (or head start through technology) is the main strapline and company ethos for the Audi marque.

I know  :wink:

I have just fitted these to my 4mo - and im impressed, would deffo recommend them and power bulbs then the standard candles VW fitted.

Did anyone have trouble fitting the free 'cool blue' sidelights?

WTF? and where/how do they fit in??? or have I lost the plot?

The cool blue ones are much easier to fit than the main ones, there is about 1000000 square foot more of access to them, what bit are you having problems with?

Where do they go?

Bonnet opened, spring clip for sidelight opened which reveals a loom of wires but nowhere to 'plug' the bulb into..........bonnet closed, back inside, cup of tea.

As you reveal the Loom follow the wires to the bottom one (top one is high beam) and then there is, humm whats the best way to describe this, a kind of push mechanism. You would hold it liek your holding a pen with your thumb and finger and push it together and then it pulls out, replace the bulbs same as you did with the others ones.

Does that make any sense? Its kinda hard to explain.

Just ordered some of these bulbs. Hope i've ordered the right ones. I bought 2 sets, one for dipped beam and one for main beam (think they're H1's and H7's?) Confused myself a bit so I wouldnt be surprised if I get two of the same! Has anyone else ordered one set for dipped and one for main beam? For the mk4's are H1 and H7 the right ones for these?

If you ordered the ones on the first page (they are the main beam ones). You should get a set of "Blue Vision" sidelights (first turn on the light switch, I assume this is what you called dipped?) for free :)
