Nice product that! Now how bright are they, I mean are they as bright as the Audi DRLs? Can they be seen if the side lights are on during the day?

Work fine for me  :smiley:

What Golf do you drive ?

I have bought some already with built in resistors (Made by Ziza , much more expensive than those on ebay) and they both work but after about 5 seconds one goes out and I get the error message on the dash.

Just want to make sure you have a Mk5 golf before I buy some  :smiley:

It's a 170ps oiler with Xenons - they are much brighter  - but NOT in DRL territory.

Unless you have dainty hands like me you'll find them tough to fit as the push fit into the bulb holder is very snug  :wink:

No 'bulb out' warnings - and I also fitted LED numberplate lights from the same source.
