Title: Headlights
Post by: jamesg1990 on 21 February 2009, 19:01

Evening all,

Just went out to my car to find out that one of the headlights is totally smashed :( Must've been a stone or something.

Firstly, am I right in thinking I can't drive it till I've fixed the light?

Secondly, I was thinking about getting some anni lights anyway, but have noticed vwspeed dont sell them anymore! I've been looking on ebay and have found these http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-GOLF-MK4-HEADLAMPS-BLACK-ANGEL-EYES-HEADLIGHTS_W0QQitemZ120356788457QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item120356788457&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1701%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318 my car doesn't have xenons or anything.

What do you guys think/recommend?

Cheers

I dont really want the angel eyes, just theyre the only ones online that are smoked!

Any idea how much a set of anni lights from the stealer will set me back?

Crikey didnt realise they were that much! Well I might as wellget them now rather than in a few months time.

Do you think theyre likely to have them in stock?

I can't drive around with the light as it is at the moment, there actually isn't any glass left at all!

"Do you think theyre likely to have them in stock"
Erm going on previous experience with my local dealer then your answers going to be no and you will have to probably order them from vw
what about trying TPS if you have one local they stock/order vag parts and from experience cheaper than dealers prices worth a shout  :wink:
