Any news?

Am I correct in thinking that not a single member has retro fitted genuine xenon's?

Not a member but do know of someone who has retro fitted the golf r ones but last I heard he was having issues with the full beam not working.

I think you maybe on the money on this one. We are patiently waiting for Mr. SteveP to fettle his with the latest. The flood gates will then open! :grin:
Not long to go as BW45 starts on Monday!

There was a black Cat D GTI up for sale on Autotrader the other day that had the R lights both front and rear fitted. That car is an 09 plate and has the black front Xenons retro fitted. So if they are fitted to that car they should fit others (?)



And some not very tasteful red highlighting to the front end too.....

Yes, your correct AND it has the headlamp adjuster in the cabin so it hasn't had Xenons from factory.....

I saw a set of the LED DRL's on VW's electric Golf at the Future Car Challenge today - I wasn't keen on them personally, but here's a pic for you anyway.

Must admit, it looks quite strange in that picture. :undecided:
