Easy retrofit xenon lights (with ballasts) for any H1 or H7 fittments (i.e doesnt matter if you have twin headlamps or stanrdard ones, or crystals or anything really)

installation guide... http://www.vagparts.com/pages/GtiHID.htm

pricing and online ordering

please note, these are REAL XENON HID lights that operate at approx 23000V, just like on new cars, and will require you to mount the HID ballasts somewhere.

There is NO...NO need to cut any wires in the looms..Works with standard o.e equipment or mod lights (cheap lights may melt)

Ill PM you after i've sorted out today business. On todays agenda is new exhaust, new splitters, getting dings sorted.

I'll either be selling my xenon HID retrofit (as per the link at the top) or when i can be arsed i'll stick em in the hella's and see if they look any good (in that case i'll be selling naught :) ).

time will tell.

I ordered my headlamps from the USA. If you do decide to order them (dont all rush, becuase i got em becuase i knew no one had em over here). They are about 290 quid over there which ISNT BAD. Just make sure you get the RHD version or you'll be in crap.

I think someone should probably find a UK supplier of these at some point :).

I guess you lot could do a group buy of these. They are VERY VERY VERY nice headlamps and are much better than anything thats out on the market right now (in terms of light efficiency -- not compared with true xenons of course).

The idea is to get these, get the xenon conversion kit and then drive with super duper bright and very attractive lights.

As far as im aware Zenon lights arent legal unless you have automatic headlamp leveling due to the fact the are a hazard to other roads users if they are aimed/adjusted correctly.....

I dont think Hella will ever produce a 'true' Zenon kit for a MK3 because of this??............

you can get the beam control from this site http://www.tmtuning.com/

but I dont think they will work on the hella celis for some reason. First, the headlights feature a DE dipped beam projector high beam with true Hella ellipsoid light projection (the light is more clear and more focused) Hella revolutionized projector beam headlights and nothing else compares. The next feature is the FF or "Free Form" wide pattern high beam, another Hella innovation that makes the light spread wider and more viewable to the human eye there is hardly any scatter or loss of unusable light.speak to Damion at TM he will tell you it wont work as I looked into this myself a while ago,
