Woop! lol
I do miss the old place!

Also, don't suppose you got any idea how to get the plastic thing off the inside of the boot lid do ya?

haha. Erm, i havent had the one of this car, but my old 9n3 gti if i remember rightly had around 6 torx screws, and tight retainer clips holding it on. Just remove as many torx screws you can find, look inside the moulded handle on the inside of the boot as well, there'll be two screws up inside there. Then pull on it as hard as you can, because it'll be really tight. Hope that helps you lol :D

I want bright white likes with as little yellow as possible, but I'm a total thicko when it comes to bulbs so if you kind folk could point me in the right direction! Not really wanting to spend a load, £30 or £35 tops!. cheeeeeers!!

I've installed Phillips Blue Vision Ultra. The name is quite decieving, they're very white with a very slight tinge of blue. If you read earlier in this thread I put a link up and a discount code for hids4u. All in all, 2 headlight and 2 sidelight bulbs (which come free) came to £19 delivered.

Failing that, a few other people go for the Osram Nightbreakers :)
