Polo gti 6r please help

Post by John7832 »

Hello, I’m really new to this forum and needed some help with my polo gti 6r, I brought the car from auction recently and found that I need a passenger side headlight, however I can not find one at all (and buying from dealer is too expensive) does anybody know the part number or some where I can purchase them?

This is the headlight in question (the headlight on the passenger is not the correct one)

Hmm... you can search online with these references, the logical thing to do is to buy the headlight in UK stores. Autodoc is also a good option.

What he's saying with UK sellers is, buy RHD headlights with the 6R2 reference number. 6R1... is LHD and you dont want that in the UK.

I'm not intimately familiar with the UK shops, but autodoc is probably worldwide. Otherwise perhaps ebay or some other second hand site?

Is that the Autodoc website you can’t find? Here’s a link to it;
