I have asked them for a pic and more info

[Jimble]

I would imagine they'd be similar to the Dectane ones?

[Sean465]

Maybe they are the same as these ones

Would I be banned from all forums globally for fitting such lights?!! Quite like them...or maybe I am just regretting not ticking the Xenon option box and my lust for 'fairy lights' will pass.....

I think you should just order a new car and be done with it 

[Sean465]

oohhh so it's all confirmed then and you can't change it? What if I could get you a price off someone for the whole xenon system retrofitted, all OEM? He does SO many retrofits it's unreal, and the stuff he's done you just wouldn't think possible, he mainly does Audis but he might be able to do VW? It won't be cheap but it will be 100% perfect?

How late in the day can you change or amend your order? I ordered mine 1st Decemember?

Thanks for the offer Soctt, could well be interested depending on the answer to the above!

Has the dealer told you a build week yet?

If the build week has been confirmed then you cannot change it. If it hasn't then you can. Build weeks usually get confirmed 2-3 weeks (I think) before it goes into production.

Depending on how fast the dealership placed your order, their allocation etc etc then you MIGHT be able to change it, if it's gone through fast then I imagine it will be built soon so you wouldn't.

Cheers Scott, much appreciated....its a company car :embarassed: and its been ordered through a fleet management company that do not know what day of the week it is, so I think "whats my build week? could send them into melt down... I will try and find out and may well be back to you re your offer..

Ahhhh well you can hope it's taken them a while to place the order and all the usual boll*cks and you might just be able to change it!

No problem, just let me know if you want his number. He comes very highly recommended on various forums. If you buy new parts then I imagine it will cost more than factory fit. If you can find used parts then you're on to a winner.
