Have you looked in the child board at the top of the Mk5 index page?  :wink:

Here's the link: http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?board=59.0

Maybe "The Doc"s post on setting Xenons for Europe might help, otherwise have a rummage through my post of free workshop manuals.

for the W5W, you just pull the hold out straight out, its a b!tch to do.

Yup.  If you had any skin on your knuckles before starting, cherish it, because it will be gone by the time you've finished!  :laugh:

Am 100% sure my Lupo GTi had xenons they were standard fitment on the GTI models only, had washers and auto level too they were really stupidly bright too!
will get ordering some bulbs tommorrow.
