UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Also, it might be handy to have winter tyres on these old 15" rims for winter use, and again advise your insurance company that you will be swopping wheels over every year. I thought about that but I'm selling my 15s as I use a work van monday to Friday. Thanks everyone else, I'll phone the qu...

My insurance is due and I've changed to Portago 16" alloys from 15" (cant remember style name) do I put these as a mod on insurance or not? I'm thinking not as the new alloys are still VW alloys for the polo just not the ones that came with it when j bought it. Any help would be appreciated

Either that is a funny question, or you have asked it in a funny way, the indexing tag is there so that you orientate the bulbs in exactly the correct way. I'm not trying to say that from my past experience that fitting these bulbs correctly is easy by the way! If you have had both bulbs out and no...

How should the filament point? Up or down inside the unit

I'm pretty happy with: Philips WhiteVision Xenon effect -- I see you've detailed about them in your thread, however. A friend of mine is running 'NIGHTEYE LED Headlights' - which just screw in to the same fitting. They're bright- seriously bright- but the spread of light is awful. Are you running t...

Can someone help with the filament in the lamp. Should it point upwards or down??

What's the best Halogen (legal) bulbs?
I've tried Osram Nightbreaker (rubbish) and Phillip's White Vision.
Phillip's pnes looks good but the range was rubbish as was the Osram ones.

What's the best size of led to fit the headlight units?
Dont want to be having to drill and cut the covers

I'm looking to upgrade my Halogen bulbs to LEDs. Can anyone recommend some ones that will fit without the need for drilling, cutting etc. Would be looking to change H7 High and Low beam, H8 Fog light, w21w Daytime running Lights and w5w side lights Also any advice for changing to LED would be apprec...

Was only able to get this picture before losing the light but absolutely buzzing with the new alloys!! And so you should be! They look great on your car. 😎. Good to see you’ve got some good protection on them and some decent tyres too. Thanks! Will get more pics tomorrow after work. Made sense to d...

Thanks folks. Will keep the current 15" spare as it's a full size 185/60 R15

If your car came with a 15" full sized steel spare wheel, and your car now has 16" alloys on it, then that 15" original spare wheel is still okay for that car. Put it this way, my wife has a 2015 VW Polo 1.2TSI SEL bought new, that car came with 16" alloys as standard and a 15&q...

Would this fit my Polo? Just need it for a spare as obviously the old one is no use now.
