I asked the seller about these when I had my old Gti, and he wouldn't tell me who they were made by or any other info. You're covered by PayPal and eBay, but be wary!

The other half bought these for me for Christmas. We did have an issue with one of the indicators as the connection was not very good and the indicator wouldn't work, tweaked them and now they are fine and look great IMO.

It's like anything, if you want something, pays the price or, buy a cheaper one but be prepared for there to be little snags here and there.

Has anyone bought these? How do they compare to the Depo and Hella ones? Thanks  :wink:

Can the projector head lights run with the standard halogen head light bulbs?
Yes you can still use a standard bulb.

Thank you.

I ask because I have broken my adjuster in one of my head lamps, so instead of replacing one I may go for a pair of these or simular.

Do these still raise and lower using the controls in the car?

they are the same lights i have, i bought them off the same guy. Decent guys its two brothers that sell the parts
i collected it from them and they are based in bradford, they have got alot of replica parts there for mk5 and mk6 golfs.
 
sidelights is in the high beam reflector not next to the indicator  :sad:

no motors only manual adjustment via headlight screws

but it has xenon shutters linked to halogen high beam which raises the shutter in the projector side when you flash
