Title: FRONT LIGHTS
Post by: mr wong on 28 February 2005, 19:17

Right guys, need some advice/help from the experts on here since I know feck all about cars.

My MK III Gti has had its headlights converted too MK IV style, they look really good (well in my opinion!) but the light emitted is pants. Full beam and dipped is very poor.

How can I improve this? Is it as simple as just putting in brighter bulbs or is there anything that anyone can suggest, where I can get it and how much.

Also thinking about putting on MK IV alloys, standard 15" twin spoke ones. Anyone else done this and do they look ok. I want to stick with 15"

Any help/advice would be really appreciated from a car flump :undecided:!

Okay , you dont say what make they are , are they e marked right hand drive jobbies ? only there are loads of cheapo left hookers about!!! You can upgrade the bulbs with brighter ones from Halfrauds or Motorworld beware tho some are illegal!!
Should look the nuts when sorted tho!! :cool:

the uprated ones (80w/100w) have a tendancy to not last very long.......

there are xenon light kits about, but there a  bit expensive....not sure where to get them from though.
