GTI headlight conversion/ upgrade?

Featured Replies

So I am considering upgrading my headlights to the GTI projectors and hoping someone could share some info on the whole thing...

Firstly, what's the legal standpoint on this; in terms of police hassle as well as come MOT time actually passing?

Secondly, what sort of scale is the task/ how difficult is it? Any 'how to' threads about?

Last but not least, are there any other bits I might need? e.g. wiring adapters etc... I need or do they just plug in to any existing adapters/ harnesses.

Cheers

To be MOT legal you'll need to install the rear axle beam sensor for the automatic range adjusters along with the wiring, headlight washers with the extra water reservoir, pump & wiring, you might have to cut the front panel to clear the ballast units, so none of it is plug n play :(
