why are these so cheap? Are they that bad?

Have you looked at the Hella Dyna Beams?

If I didn't have Xenons I would have been tempted by these.

yeah i also looked into the dynabeam, as ive got halogen.. i would need the halogen dynabeam look.. had a nice chat with the guy at parts4euro early last year about these and he said they were fantastic.

i think they beat any faerie light drl style type, as the celius ring is also the side lights

BUT.. at £600 delivered is  :shocked:ing lol

i purchased them off ebay last year, after fitting and driving around you just dont get the same light output effect as standard lights give..

maybe its just me but the lights just seemed more dull and fixed without any spread like on the sides or anything compared to normal headlamps/ so i sold them on.

Thanks mate, just the sort of info I was looking for.

Guess the only feasible route is Hellas or a full xenon conversion? Both options are pretty pricey.
Seems I may have to keep with the standard GTi lamps for now!
