They should glow orange. Anywhere that sells car bulbs will sell them - its a PY21W with offset pins in a bayonet fitting.

just ask for a PY21W and all should be well :)

Your headlights are H4 bulbs if you have a mk4 polo :) One has offset pins - thats the best way to check!

Make sure you get the offset connector though.

I work at halfrauds and checked see if we had any and the short version is i had to fil on of the normal ones down and jam it into the holder.

It'll be alreet.
