R32 Headlights (Orignal or Not?)

[andy_airsoft]

After doing a bit of reading up I can see a set back in April went for around the £450 mark.

That's the figure I've been told by two other dubbers.

I would need a set of standard GTI ones in exchange tho and would need to be collected in person otherwise I'll have to buy a set and fit them before I sell them which is an option so either way is good for me.

I can take photos if anyone is interested and this will fund my VAGCOM, Bora sport foils and other stuff I'm looking to kit out the car with so if anyone is looking to do a deal with either;

VAGCOM + USB Cable
Bora Sport Foils
Bora air vents
Black Leather arm rest
DAS or Meguiars G220  Polishing machine + Kit (Heads etc)
2001 Indigo blue drivers door (mine is the wrong blue from another golf)

Or try me with any other bits or bobs apart from a DV, panel filter as these are new on my car.

Cheers

Andy

Seriously dude, you are crazy to sell these! 

I am not trying to do anyone out of a deal, and can also appreciate you need funds, but as others have said, you will regret selling these. It just seems a shame that you are looking to mod your car and are doing away with a decent upgrade which is already on your car.

You should count yourself lucky your car came with them on when you bought it!

I have Xenons on my MK3, they are amazing.

The thing is the money can do a lot more for me and Ive never had xenon headlights before so I doubt I'll miss them.

I am doing the car up but more tuned towards performance rather then looks.

They are nice but I'd rather have the standard ones and a fair few notes in my back pocket for other stuff then have some lights I'll use for about 20 mins per day in the winter (I don't drive loads at night).

Might even invest in some anni lights and still have a load of change for other stuff.

You'd get £450 if they are mint, absolutely no chips or marks on the lenses, all tabs on the lights, come with adapters and they must be the later spec ones with the ballast on the back of the light.
normally they go for around £300. Ive seen brand new ones go for £500 

[andy_airsoft]

hmm think I'll have to have a good look over them, from what I can see no chips or marks on the outside, apart from that I'll have look them over on the inside a little better

They are far superior than the originals but the choice is yours, as for £450 that is generally the exception rather than the rule, most sets go for between £300 to £350 but if you get someone who doesn't care on the price and gets into a bidding war then you never know - as with everything Ebay it is a gamble

I put my set together for about £200, I got a brand new one from an auto jumble last year for £30
