Fitted these last night, plug and play on Ozzie Golf R32.

Hi Bazzle, they look really smart. A few questions for you though. Firstly, are they much brighter than the original taillights when illuminated? Secondly, presumably, they don't trigger bulb out failure? And where can one source them and roughly how much are they? Cheers.

hmmmm....I'm not sure I'm up for those....jury is out at the moment.

In the meantime....emmachizzit?

Nice fitting job, but I don't reckon it suits the car, looks like's something is unfinshed on, sorta like headlights, but only they are on your arse.

Dibbs on the stock r32 tails if you sell them!

I like 'em mate, they look the good. Should have been a standard fitting on the R's to be honest. Jetta got them (similar ones), why not the R's??

They don't look rice at all which is the main positive there!

Nice one.

I like them.. R32's are already perfect and that just makes it a whole lot sweeter.. Good job there mate

Hmmm not too my taste, never really dug the "altezza" style lights but i must say it complements the colour of your car.

Lol, they're not altezza style at all ! Altezza are clear tail lights, like you see on the millions of lancers and civics (and IS200's ) roaming the streets. These are not clear, just LED in the middle.

Like I said before, Jetta style (Jetta lights pictures below). Red on the outside, LED in the middle.......not Altezza.

Altezza do a similar light, looks much more crappy though:

Altezza is a type of car - Toyota Altezza/Lexus IS200 (with the 'clear' tail lights. They got called Altezza lights because of what car they were on. Same as calling a vacuum cleaner a Hoover.

Fair enough, I didn't know that, but those ones pictured are listed as "Golf 5 Red Altezza Tail Lights".

sorry my apologies the certainly do look similar though, although no where near as bad as the lights seen on those ricer cars parading around.

way to de-rail a thread guys

I'm not a fan of the OEM LED's myself. I like the dark red surrounds, but the centres are to large, white and bling for my taste. I've been waiting for them to grow on me and they haven't.
