anyone know of anyone selling these other than hids direct as after 7 days they still havent arrived from them so ebay case opened but looking at some of their recent negative feed back im not holding out much hope

[chrispy.]

Not off top of my head... I ordered from HIDs direct and they were very good with delivery.

[aaronon]

Did anyone get the chance to take photos of how to remove the headlight?

[chrispy.]

I have!! I will update today for you
Sorry for the delay

Do you know if you have the twin headlight or single headlight system?

Cheers mate, well I contacted them and they said they were sent, but they'd send another set out recorded this time which just arrived but of course not on a recorded delivery at all which is fine as I finally have them but overall not impressed with the service.

But you take your chances I guess

[aaronon]

Pretty sure I have the twin :)

Sorry about the delay but I have finally got round to uploading the pictures of how to remove the headlights.
*These pictures are for Polo's with the Twin Headlight system*

So here goes.
First things first, I would highly recommend placing some masking tape under the headlight to reduce scratches when removing the headlight.



Then you will need to remove 2 T30 screws as it shows in the picture.
Please bare in mind that the middle screw is for guidance. This stops you from pushing the headlight too far back.



The next bit is a tad difficult. You will now need to remove the wiring harness connecting to the headlight. This is abit tough.
There is a clip on the side which you will need to push up and then pull the headlight out. I find that using a screwdriver to push the clip up, then pulling the connector off.



Once disconnected, you will now need to place your hand behind the light and lift up and pull out. You have 2 clips under the light holding it in place. This will take force but will jump out. This is where the masking tape comes in handy.



Job Done! Take your time and let me know how you get on.
Thanks!

[aaronon]

Cool thanks!!!

The clip and screwdriver... Is that the clip next to the yellow and brown wire?

[chrispy.]

Yes it is. The yellow & brown cable are the power cables to the headlight.
Disconnect this and youll then be able to remove the light

Thanks

I'm still afraid to do this but definitely doing to do it when I get a dry day!

[aaronon]

Almost a month and still I'm too chicken to actually do this myself.

I'm on nightshifts this week so might just take it to a garage to do it in case I mess up alignment and stuff haha

Reckon they'd charge ages because they've to take out the headlights?

Dude, it's a 5 minute job seriously. You'd be mental to pay for someone to change your bulbs!

[aaronon]

I did it today. I paid someone lol. I just don't like messin with electronics. Taking out those cables was too much

He did notice that one of the clips in my passenger side headlight was broken and I should get it repaired so will look to do that next I think.

Happy to have them in. If one of them blows then I will definitely try to replace them myself. I just didn't feel confident enough!

I would still fear breaking clips when lifting the light out (the two clips which take force to remove would cause me issues)

[chrispy.]

It is abit nerve racking first go but now ive done my bulbs, im confident to rio the lights out again

Glad you got the new bulbs in, how they look? Got any pictures?
