Front H7 headlight....

The rather long and rather complicated reason to why I'm not buying MK6 ones is because euro car parts basically f*cked my order up, (shock), they are advertising some MK6 Golf bulb holders that are easily compatible with HID's ( I know I know they're like the devil on this forum ) and they've basically sold me these cheap sh*t replacements, bearing in mind they have just charged me £32 and they're on ebay for £3. They've just offered me a 25% discount as a gesture of good will, but in the same breath I got a 30% discount code through as well. To be fair, It's my own fault for using them, I definitely won't be using them again!!

So, the reason is, I can get MK5 golf bulb holders for HID's from HID direct, but the MK6 ones are the same cheap ones that euro car parts have sent me, do we reckon they'll fit then orrrr ????

Cheers

No they've just sent me two plastic things that are no use nor ornament ... They are literally not compatible with anything, they are useless!
