The Led lights look nice but four hundred pounds ? For me the normal tail lights are not that bad and don't justify the out lay for the Led's. Each to their own but I understand people wanting to personalise their car.
Had it been the ones you see on Audi cars where by you press the brake and you get the first led bulb light coming on and spreading to the rest I would lay out the money for that system.

I agree with you that for what they are, theyare hugely expensive. I don't really consider it personalising, however, more like getting an 'OEM plus' look, especially now that these LEDs are available as a factory option.

Here's a good comparison between the GTI LEDs and the R model:

I take it these lights are standard on the new Polo as I have seen a few on the road with them.

Small changes though Guy can make a big difference. I know they are expensive but thats VW for you.

 :grin: Don't worry, though, to us these LEDs are a matter of life or death, but women can't tell the difference so your wife isn't going to know that you've blown the holiday money on them :grin:
