OEM Projector headlights
T88OMM:
Personally I would never have a car without xenons again, the light output at night is far superior than standard halogens. I went out in my mums GT sport the other night and that has halogens and I had to check if they were on or not when I was driving on a particularly dark section of road, plus I think the xenon units spruce the front of the GTI up a bit. :happy2: :jumpmove:

Chris are you saying you want the OEM xenon look cluster, but still have the halogen beam. :smiley:

Yeah agree with you completely.
I went from a car that had xenons to the Golf without, and the difference is crazy - as you say! But £750 for xenons that VW charge, compared to £450 that BMW charged was a bit of a joke! I've upgraded the bulbs, and now they are bluey/whitey and dont look too dissimilar a xenon light, so the projector lenses will top it all off nicely!

Yep!
Combined with my uprated bulbs as mentioned in my above post, I think it will be pretty close to the xenon look (although not actual light intensity and amount of output that a proper xenon brings)!

As said Hella make them and are on ebay.de/ebay.co.uk for around £350 well designed cluster too.
