Front Lights
« on: 13 March 2008, 16:11 »
have a look at these pics:





How has he managed to do that with his lights?
Im thinking if he had clear bulbs in those straight strips under his dimmers and main beam it would look just like a set of daytime running lights....and looks damn cool!!!!

....I'm not sure what you mean but it's doubtless me being thick!

Aren't those simply the standard sidelights but with the additional small side markers which are required in America?

I understand that in America it's illegal not to have sidelights even if you have DRL's.

i noticed this before maxamus, when i posted the link. i think they are drl's as standard on the mk5 gti and i think they are for US spec and ozzy spec. if you go on google and type "golf mk5 drl" then go on images there are quite a few like this. i also stumbled upon on another forum where people were saying they have disconected them as they dont like them. if you search through google then theres some stuff teher but not rite much :undecided:. hope i made sense  :smiley: :smiley:
