Is there anyway we can make this thread private ? The rest of the forum will have a heart attack with us spending money on this sort of thing.  :laugh:

Thank you for correcting me! One way ticket for you to Baghdad. :tongue:

Do you know what Bagh means in a certain language?
Guess the language and guess the meaning. One right answer answer and you get a return ticket! :grin:

Don't throw the second set away... keep in them in your boot for snowy days.  When you get stuck, you can stick them under your wheels for traction  :laugh:  :laugh:

Hi am1w speaking of a "light feast"... :laugh:

I read somewhere you had a xenon retrofit....can you explain that to me.
I mean do you have the bulbs and fitting and trafo installed afterwards.

I am in doubt since if I do it afterwards I do not have the specific encasing lens and the heat of the xenon will burn the halogene casing and more nay-saying stuff from my stealer like no swiveling...no automatic high-low adjustments........ :sad:

How is your experience...

BTW I love the model....the price is relative..there are models costing thousands of pounds.. :evil:

Only fogs and main beam in Xenons but not DRLs, so the whole thing looks stupid. No heat problems, no auto height adjustment, but you can use the manual facility. Same as if you had the ordinary lights.
However, you can buy the whole Mk6 Xenon housing etc from German Ebay and the auto levellers from KUFATEC. I've told the guy if I don't get the DRLs soon in Xenons to forget it.
It is a half-way house and not as sexy as the originals, but then it costs a quarter the amount.
Wish I had ordered the factory Xenons.

We can still do it all-in for 1200 Euros if we really want to. Hum? :undecided:

1200 euros ?  :shocked: Speccing Xenons to the car was cheaper from VW.

Euro 799 for the lights from eBay
Euro 219 for the Auto levelling from KUFATEC
Then some wiring looms and fitting charges.
All adds up.
So I guessed 1200 Euros = £923 approx
