Does anyone actually know what's involved in making them legal in the UK?
I'm not keen paying money like that not to pass an MOT

Ive read it seems with a bit of small rewiring these lights
Will be suitable for uk use etc, and poss a bit of vcds coding.

Not sure if you have misread that but the lights DO need fog and reverse swapping over.

I'm just waiting to see how much my car will cost to be repaired before I decide whether to buy some now  :cry:

I'm unsure if I'm missing something here.
If you buy LHD lamps it won't be a wiring alteration required will it?
If fitted as they are your reverse lamp will be red and your foglamp will be white.
So even with the wiring changed the foglamp will be on the left and if you buy the set with twin foglamps does that mean you don't have any reverse light?

If I was buying it would be the smoked cherry red same as oem Gti and R
