Damn,

I forgot about that...

I'm getting mine lowered on Saturday and I've only recently managed to get my lights sorted :roll:

You need to take it to VW who will adjust them with their 1551 unit (computer thingy)

It took them 3 attempts to get mine right before, I hope they'll be able to sort it out for me in one go this time!

As you have Xenons, one has to have Auto-height adjustment, its the Law.

Yeah, they do auto adjust to suit the road, but they need to be re-calibrated if you get the car lowered.
