his ^^^^^

they aint just sprayed there proper mk5 lights with the leds added.

iv pmd him but in the mean time.....any ideas??

oh for that i think you need to get a circuit board full of leds and somehow hook it up to your existing wiring, probably will need to make the hole a tiny bit bigger to fit the circuit board through, i'm guessing anyway.

Just how i think it would be done,

Jared (Acky) just replaced the covers for his lights, i.e. take off the cover off the LEDs and put the original mk5 cover on them. Looked brilliant.

not what he told me...I'm sure he took the led section from inside the hella's and put that into his mk5 lights

i made mine from scratch so no Hella Led lights were harmed in the making of my lights :)

I'm doing the same as tej but with mk4 16v lights. Dremel is your friend!! I've hollowed out the reflectors at the back oft he lights with the dremel to allow me to fit leds.

can you not just do an oven jobby on them in the same way people do on the fronts when they smoke them?
