What do you think of these? Opinions please...
« on: 23 June 2009, 19:03 »
I'm not usually a fan of upgrading lights etc, but I thought these looked quite good.

There are pictures halfway down the listing showing them on a GTI.

What's your opinion?

A big no-no from me here!

If you want to go down that route then IMO get either the darkened ED30/R32 rear lights or the proper VW LED ones.

without being mean if I saw those on a GTI I would laugh! if you fancy a change go with the OEM LED ones above

Cheers for all your comments. Are these the ones you're referring to?

In my opinion, they look absolutely w*nk.

The OEM LED's look pretty good though, although not cheap at £280.

Never knew these were available.................

i really dont like tail lights to be un-symetrical. the fog on the left and reverse on the right really stands out too much for me :undecided:

I've seen the LED lights from the first post on a black mk5 and they look alright. Obviously not OEM, but not as bad as people think! In colours other than black though it would stick out a bit much, but on a black car they blended in really well.
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3
