That comes to £103.55 each. I am sure I was quoted a bit more, though I must admit £160 is a bit OTT. :grin:

Depends what the 'protective strip' is :P plus now I know my mate works there, I can get them at cost anyway :)

The whole shebang is quite big and goes quite far underneath where it is fixed if I remember correctly. I seldom look underneath the car, but did so about a year ago.

The skirt is l-shaped and fits under the car by around 5-7cm and is then simply fastened by around 5 screws (torx fitting IIRC)

It is an expensive piece but fits well adn does add to the appearance/stance of the car so will be worth it

I always work things out in terms of cost per day/week so let's say it is £104 that's nicely £2 per week per side so £4 per week for a year - small price to pay for das kerb appeal ;)

Haha! Well that's one way of putting it to the missus!
If they are the same part numbers for the 3 and 5 door, I'm sure I could take them off my mum's car (she won't mind, she told my local tyre fitters she had 16" wheels :P) and I could screw them onto mine?
So on that basis, say £900 for LED Bi-Xenon's is about £17 a week :P haha
Also picked up my Yeti tips today, look easy pesy to fit, will post pictures on Friday :)

A mate that works at vw can get the led rear for 170 a side, will they work with my 09 golf? Is that a good price?

Cheap as chips!
I think you might get a bulb warning with an '09 model.

I can find out, he needs me to buy them so he can sell me them at cost price :)
I'd have to enquire for you, if I can get them for you, maybe I could have your smoked rears as a good will gesture :D :P haha

Adrian: That's £408 inc VAT. But that does not include the connector leads.
A bit of a saving but not worth a smoked rear non LED giveaway. :grin:
