Have not bought them yet. Your site is a good one for LHD cars. For RHD cars it is Tuning- Fanatics or sk-multishop. Both on German ebay. However, their prices are only for the housings.
My preference for RHD cars is Tuning-Fanatics.

(Woopsy: Using the Blackberry so got it wrong ... a bit!)

For LHD cars Autoteile privides complete Bi-Xenons ready for fitting.

This is soo off topic. Sorry!

Yes, they do include everything for 845,00 Euro. They are a complete set.
I have e-mailed Hasan who runs this company 5 times asking him to get RHD versions, but he has not replied. He only seels LHD versions even though the serial nos are the same for both. All very odd.
I think I will have to call him.

I'd guess the way the beam points. i.e. if you get the wrong LHD or RHD then you will be pointing directly to oncoming traffic.

Is this something you can arrange with the vag.com cable??
When you lower the car you can adjust the lights with vag.com.

Once I learn some serious gymnastics, I will attempt to take a picture. Sorry for now.
The sub-woofer installation has improved the mid and treble clarity no end. I've had to turn down the mid and treble. There is now so much clarity in the lower bass and upper bass. There is also a worthwhile increase in overall detail. Love it.
Hi am1w
Sounds like this could be for me also - one question -is the sub bolted to the floor near the front of the seat between 2 sections of raised floor,i.e. next to the floor mats - just wondering as this is where the amplifier is fitted on dynaudio equipped cars (covered by a plastic shroud) - in which case there might not be room ? - the plastic shroud over the amp is level with the 2 raised floor sections.
Any thoughts ?

I don't know where the Dynaudio amp is fitted, but the Pioneer sub-woofer is a perfect fit, and I do mean perfect, under the passanger seat. Fits perfectly between the seat rails and right up to the seat edge even when the seat is as far back as possible. The floor under the seat has a ridge half-way down and the sub-woofer fits right up to this. It is as if it was designed for the Golf! What luck!

PS: My sub is not bolted to the floor but is very secure using velcro as the company did not want to do any drilling.

Thanks for the reply - just to clarify,the ridge you mention half way down,is the sub fitted forwards
of this or behind it i.e.to the rear of the car -i,m guessing in front of it,in which case I might need to
have a re-think as this is where my dynaudio amp is fitted !!
