Fits not bad! They have the lugs on them to alter the position so just matched them to the ones i took off

My brother bullied me into putting hids in mine. 35w canbus friendly ones iv used and they are fine. I dont do a great deal of night driving but iv put osrams in the main beam bulbs. Just need to change the sidelights now

they would look slightly odd tbh with normal bulbs!

yeah get some led sidelights in there, they look real smart in the xenon style headlights

The sidelights are mtec ones which are pants. Got some 9 led ones to go in but not sure if they will actually work! We shall see over the weekend

You'll probs need some resistors mate, mine worked fine for a week or so the. Got a bulb error, resistors fitted and all is peachy!

Is it them x-tec ones you are using?

New mods:

I think i might tint these slighty but not sure!

Folding and puddle lights, hence my annoying questions about door controllers!

Well the headlight covers simply dont fit, completely the wrong shape so i sent them back!

On other news, some good and some bad!

Good first:

Just need a headlight switch now

Now the not so good:

My brother must have caught his hoody zip on the steering wheel getting out the car so its going in for a re-trim soon. Not sure if to get a "custom" job but not sure what to do with it!

Sorry if the pics are huge, photobucket is rubbish

Looking good on the puddle light front! Jelous you now have VCDS! Shame about the steering wheel man

Hope you get it back to perfect

Cheers Chris. Had the day off today so i though i would go and ask about the steering wheel where i got my seats done at..... Needs to be sent off and they cant just replace the scratched portion so needs to be all done, its pretty expensive to get it done but it needs doing.

On other news my boot pop arrived so i was bored and wrapped the struts:
