Nobody new I'm afraid Robin. Am going to try the Romanian chap, Iulian, at JLS Tuning (emailed him yesterday), i have been warned to expect SEVERAL months of excuses for the impending delays that are to come, lucky for me I am a patient person.  :laugh:


So we'll have 2 TR GTI's on here with LED outers and cherry red Inners :signLOL:




^ I actually prefer this to having the Valeo inner units without any LED's.


^^^^ its the latest fashion to have!! :signLOL:


....I'm not confident enough in that Romanian chap. Weren't there more problems with his work reported than long delays?

Yes, your right regarding delays and problems, but there's as many happy peeps as others. Decisions, decisions.

I've read all the threads on here and over on GOLFMKV and its either JLSTuning or the chap in Australia, Craig (Buckets) over on GOLFMKV. Will email him too just to see what's what regarding price but I believe its around £200 with all the shipping costs.

Valeo LED rear lights added (big thanks to markymark), also had side skirt repaired (again  :laugh:) and then spent all afternoon giving her a clean and polish, sealed and waxed the new wheels too...






Looking good Martin, nice to see they have gone to a good home! :happy2:

many thanks for that, thanks posted
just so i am correct, this is the european led rear cluster set manufactured by valeo !
is that correct as i need a set,
if i can buy them already swapped over then great but i dont think anyone has a set for sale so will prob need to buy unconverted set.
any tips on best place to buy ?
i have the dremmal set but as far as i have seen i need a glue gun then im sorted
thanks again

....I thought that those 'meets' were for those who had been caught speeding and were taking the lecture rather than the points.  :confused:

Hahaha! :congrats:

This was an organised event with Council and Police attendance due to a few recent deaths of young lads on the local roads. Was fund raising for the bereaved families to arrange memorials etc! Was a good night with some HUGE cars and was nice to see the mutual respect shown between the youngsters and the local Police. :happy2:
