The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

I do like these - quite an improvement [IMO] than the default lights.

They look sh!t hot! I'm seriously considering getting the R LEDs, but got a 'dummy' question to ask?  :huh:

Where do I get the VCDS to tell the computer the LEDs are fine? I presume you take the car to a VW garage to sort it out? If so, does that mean the LEDs will work straightaway after installation but the user will continuously get the MFD warnings.

Yeah you could take it to a dealer (thats sort of my plan) or you can buy from Ross Tech. Yeah they will work fine and every time you start the car you will get a warning for each light it looks like is not working to the MFD (x4). They eventually dissapear though after about 10 seconds.

Very nice Kev.. even if i do say so myself :grin:

just a quick question... did u notice a larger gap at the bottom of the lights? Mine seem to sit flush at the top but there is a much larger gap at the bottom :undecided:

Yeah they are about 1-2mm from being perfect.

What I did was position them as best I could with the long black side clip taken off, and as there is a little play at the screws before tightening them up I positioned them to a point I was happy with then tightened. Then at the end I clipped the long black side protector thingy back on. I was happy with the end result. When I did put the first one in, I thought...thats not right, then put my normal light back in and it was perfect, but as you say there not 100% spot on, about 98%. I guess there must be a tiny bit of difference between the R and GTI. But if you do what I said and remove the black side thingy, you can get it looking almost exact.

Cheers Kev.. i will give that a try when Darren has some more free time :grin: :laugh:
