  • Replacing GTI HID Globes

    Hello!
    Was having a funny problem where my drivers side headlight would go out intermittently, and would trip the error on the MFD, then come on next time I started up the car. Thought I might swap over the globes, and see if that was what was causing the issue.

    Went to take out the first one (passenger side), following steps I found online, and instead of coming out in three pieces - black and red box, black ring, globe, it came out all in one piece. Seems jammed, and just will not come apart. I have a funny feeling someone in the past has put it together wrong, and it wasn't actually sitting in the headlight correctly. Note, it's also sitting skewed.

    Have attached a photo. Any ideas what is jamming it?

    Ignore that! Got it apart now. Just to wait and see if the error code moves to the other side
