....Of the 2 pics, I prefer the lower pic's maroon Mk5 look too. I found the guy's How-To pdf on vortex - It's VERY involved and not for the faint-hearted!

Can I ask one more question.
Side lights on = bottom row of lights and the Angel Rings, yes.
Main Light = all of the above and the Xennon looking bulb light up, yes
Full Beam = A whole lot of lighting.... Is this correct?

P.S. You must be the new "Northern Lights" or " The Sheffield Aurorer"

I visited the TTshop this week and we poked around to see if the Audi LED's could be fitted. Not unless I cut into the crash bars (no way!!) or changed my vents to the GT style with horizontal bars and fitted the DRL's low as in the pics in this thread.

So it's definitely a no-no for me. I might check out the Hella DRL replacements for the fogs.
