Opinions on these LED headlights

Post by TheFrog »

Came across these on German eBay. Not the full LED headlights, but as they use projector lenses, you could convert to xenon. I like the U-shape DRLs, but I'm not sure about the aftermarket looking LED indicators along the bottom.

Opinions?

No. Those are Golf 7 R look. :)

I have heard about some guys having trouble with the LED "U's" in those lights...

The lights look awesome. But I think they are cheaply made... :cry:

The indicator design lets an otherwise good design down IMO

Can't say I'm a fan of these really, they do look a bit 'aftermarket'.

These would be fior LHD cars of course, in the UK the light cutoff would be wrong, and I'm not sure I could see anywhere on thrifting how they could be adapted without using stick on beam converters.

there is a forum on polo6rfreunde and there it's said that there is a version that is good, the latest version, and an older version that has some problems.

x2car.de (the shop) and the owner (whitedragon) provide some good support there!
