Title: Headlight
Post by: Lorddan on 20 December 2023, 16:21

Golf Gti Mk7 2016
Does anyone know if the earlier(2013/14/15) LED headlights do the sweep movement on start up?
Trying to find a replacement, but either getting crazy £900+ prices or slightly incorrect part number matches...
Any help appreciated
Dan

Yes they do that on my 2013 PP.  Presume at that price you're needing a full headlight unit not just a new lamp.  Worth trying an online breaker?

Ah ok.
Its just the lens that is broken, but doesn't look like it'll come off...

The early headlamps were xenon not LED so have very different working mechanisms.
The lamp housing is one piece unfortunately.
