    Best bet is to try ebay.de I reckon if you can win the bid and someone that will post, although still rather high in price like this one already near 500 euro without the grill.


    Bartek in Germany say they have it complet front end for 600 euro

          The light output is very poor on those Rallye headlights. You need to fit a relay kit as a minimum and wire it so the dip beam is held on when you go to main beam.

          Fitting big wattage bulbs is a no-no as they over heat the dip beam lamp and can crack the lens. I have seen this happen when using a steam cleaner on the front of one. A costly error!!

            Not to mention they look like crap. Why do you want to do it?

              Surely a Jetta front end would be cheaper from the states? and almost look the same..... with a bit of electrical tape lense eyebrows

                I have a feeling that there are 1 or 2 Jetta grills floating around the place as I have had this idea before & made some enquiries (try Jayco)

                But really I think that the VW design gods know best & just don't play dice

                      No sorry I don't have a link for these
                      I saw them on ebay about a year ago, somebody was selling them

                      Maybe send an email to Inpro & see if they can help

                        you need the radiator slam panel thing too, this is what the lights screw onto. i guess it wouldn't be too hard to modify the golf one thou.

                            i have a jetta front end on mine, similar to the rally just without the air gap under the headlights and mine has smaller slats.i love how rectangle lights work on mk2's
