I don't fancy all the hassle of swapping things around , or teh possibility of being stung for import tax, so will give these a miss.

 I am keeping an eye out so will keep you all posted  :smiley:

Hi guys,
New to golf scene and looking at getting some R LED lights, obvious choice would be the oem ones but I'm sure you'll all understand that money dictates these decisions!
I've seen these on eBay: not sure what people's thoughts were on these?

Well the first ones do not have led indicators or reverse or foglamps.
The second ones look the best but don't say too much about them and I'm not sure on the bank transfer only thing?
My cars a September 09 so oem LEDs can't be coded in with a new body controller.
I'm waiting on someone taking the plunge to hear what they're like.

And second one is from Romania - they quality will be crap.

Its has to be English, German or american.....

i spoke to DM, and he put in his message that the fog would need swapping over.

Is it difficult to do?
