No Problem Guys  :happy2:


I must Stress that you all send Matt an email stating that you are on the forum and that you want a set of LED's for the Mk5 GTI as arranged by Carlo.

Don't just send the payment.  :ashamed:


……p.s Im totally loving my LED's now. At night or in the multi story carparks they are Amazing  :star:

To add to this thread, anyone know which LED can-free bulbs to use for the front fog lights by chance?

I don't know which LEDs to use for the front fogs, but if you want Super white ones try the MTEC HB4's  :happy2:

Thanks for that, Well if you are going to the effort of making everything nice and white, may as well do the front spotlights too? Everything looks about the same from front to rear?

Fitted mine today. They look awesome. But the real test is when it's dark. I hope the number plate ones are bright as I hoped. If not then I'll have to get the 18smd number plate bulbs which is like £25 on the bay.

Also I left my sun visors as standard for the moment. They seem to flicker and only remain on when the visor is at an awkward position. Need to look into it.


I'll post pics up tonight.
