What are people's thoughts?
« on: 16 April 2014, 10:16 »
Been considering gettin the OEM led xenon headlights for the gti for a while now, cant justify over 1000 quid on just lights tho, seen these on ebay and look reasonable, also contain the proper 15 led rather than the replica lookin 10 leds, whats your thoughts???

Have you asked who manufactures them/ where they get them from?

If your seller disappears where do you pursue your rights if a problem arises?

Are they bi-xenon, i.e. have a shutter that alters the lens from dipped to main beam? If they are, they look quite nice, although you won't know what the quality is like or how good the beam pattern is until you get them and fit them.

Depending on how far away the seller is from you, I'd want to go and collect them in person. Or like me, not bother and make sure that my next car has OEM ones.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

Just going for the ones from VACAR now, a more solid unit and more reputable company, 15 led versions are 380 and that includes delivery and a hid kit!

Never saw these before, just looked at the site, they look good.
