Look ok. Suppose it depend on how much you get them for. The only thing that puts me off is the decoder box in picture 3. When i've seen these before they usually come with just plug and play adaptor harnesses. The smoked version look nice tho.

I got a set for £121 couldn't go wrong just hope that they are up to scratch. Other sets from the same seller have gone for well over £200 think I got lucky

Certainly a good buy. Hope they do what they say on the tin.

im guessing as these are plug and play and dont need coding changes they have boxes full of resistors.

I hoping that they are just plug and play will find out when they come as I have nothing to code them with. However as long as they do what they say all will be okay

I really like the look of the LED rear lights. I know these are smoked...can you get them in a "normal" colour?

Regards,

Mart

I'm not sure the only ones I've seen this seller put on eBay are smoked. Could always ask them the question. Will put some photos up when they are on so you can see how dark they really are.

Nice price. I had that on my saved list. Let us know how the fitment goes, and whether the coding and reverse/fog work as advertised. I really want a set but trying to find something that looks legit. Fingers crossed for you!

The smoked ones are probably the same colour as the golf R oem ones rather than the red of the GTD/GTI oem ones.

I much prefer the R smoked ones when compared to the red GTI/GTD ones. The only colour I dont mind the non smoked ones on is a white car. All the rest imo look better with the R smoked ones.
