Valeo Tail Lights
« on: May 11, 2016, 08:01:29 pm »
Guys

I'm going to try and source some of these in the next few weeks but before I do I need some assistance.

Firstly, where's the best place to buy them ? Direct from Germany ?
Does everything I need come with the lights ? I keep seeing people mention "inners" ?
I have the MK5 Pirelli GTI if this makes a difference.

@Eddie-NL has kindly agreed to fit these for me ( thanks again mate ).

Thanks in advance.

Ricky

Thanks mate.

I did see someone refer to Kunzmann in another thread. Are these the best quality ones ? I don't paying a bit more for better LEDs/quality.

Good quality no issues.  Just need to swap both fog and reversing inner lenses to keep the MOT man happy :happy2:

Cheers mate.

When you say swap the inner lenses - what do you mean ? Using the inners from my existing lights ? Do you have these ones ?

If I'm correct half way down the post you will see the silver backing of the inner lights and need to remove  other sides and unclipped the reflectors out and swop the sides to your reverse and fog light in the rmcorewct place UK spec.

Thanks chap.

I will order these at the weekend. As I said earlier @Eddie-NL will fit them as I'm useless at things like that. He, on the other hand, seems to be the King with modifications !

I do keep hearing about him and he's well recommended for all types of electrical mods for sure.
