1LJ 008 758-011 and 1LJ 008 758-021 are the RHD models RRP ?128 each all the newer Mk3's ones DON'T need the extra cable only the first year or so of production that do.

Demon Tweaks Direct will do them for ?127+VAT = ?298.45

There's a SMALL local retailer in Wimbledon SW18 that can get them in for ?125+VAT = ?293

Selling the old BMW this weekend, so I'll have the cash then.

Big hand to Black GTI!!!

He recommended http://www.gsfcarparts.com - just downloaded their catalogue and they have them: ?76.50 + VAT per side = ?179.78

Inc delivery that's ?189.12... just saved me ?110!!!

They actually have them in stock too, so might even pop around later today... when I called up their Heathrow branch I specifically asked "and are those the genuine Hella parts, not equivalents" to which the sales person replied, "yes, genuine Hella 'Mk4 look' headlamps for the Mk3 Golf".... shoul dhave recorded that one 'co sI'm sure they'll be equivalents - that's nearly HALF the Hella RRP! Everybody advertises Hella and then actually has In-Pro or something like that...

BUGGER!

Despite having a Hella logo at the top of that section (of three light) and having the photo of a Mk4 facelift STRAIGHT out of the Hella catalogue next to it, the GSF lights are apparently completely "unbranded".

White box, no logo's, no idea of performance, no thanks.

Looks like I will be paying the ?300 to make sure I get decent parts.... just not quite yet.

When I called their online sales, they said "yes, just had a look in the catalogue and they're definitely Hella".... specifically asked a few times to make sure they weren't rip-off's / InPro / FK /others and "yes, definitely Hella".

Then realised their Kingston branch is 5 mins around the corner, so I call ed them up. First off, I asked the guy the same questions and he said "looks like Hella, but need to order them across from another brach call me tomorrow and I'll check". Called him te next morning and he said "Sorry, completely unbranded".

If I'd ordered online I'd be stuck with unbranded lights that probably wouldn't support the adjustable beam height, would almost certainly have a bad beam pattern and knowing my luck would probably be LHD!
