LED tail lights and headlight conversion!! HELP ME!!

[jayce_6]

Hey guys,
One of my very first posts up here in what Im sure will be many.
I've just gotten my a 2010 Golf GTI MY11 and am looking into upgrading the rear lights to the Golf R style LED lights, as well as changing the head lights to bi-xenon lights/led day time running lights (like the ones on the GTI 35 or GTI adidas).

I literally have ZERO idea how to go about doing this, where I can source parts, how much is it going to cost, what it takes to install everything correctly so that my new car isnt damaged lol

I found these on ebay located in Melbourne so i can pick it up personally but i dont know if its the right thing to do by my car. Wouldn't want it stuffing up anything else.

Any advice on this would be helpful!! THANKS IN ADVANCE!!

Hey Jayce,

There are several threads and offers of advice on here. This is just one of many. Long thread but a lot of good info. Also you could try searching for "LED Taillights" in the search box.

The eBay links you've posted are to non-genuine, non-OEM units. For tails, expect to pay around 500 euros. For headlights, if done correctly and legally using OEM parts, expect to pay many thousands ($4k+) in parts and labour. See also: http://www.vwwatercooled.com/forums/...oem-84915.html
