    Got the eyelids today - thanks J! They look good! Clean lines. Just looking thru the instruction for installation.... The silver tube thing is some sorta glue I reckon? Is it removable from the headlamps after installing it?? Or is it permanent?

    Is it the same type of glue they use to stick the badges on the car? If I want to stick badges onto the car, what type of adhesive do u use?

      By the looks of things it seems like bodywork adhesive which if it is will be a beeaatch to remove without scratching the headlamp lense. I would use heavy duty 3M tape instead, at least that can be removed with cleaner fluids.

      Any idea on the postage costs to UK yet?

        Yea I'd prefer something that's not that permanent. I'm known for changing my mind after a while. Hahaa but then again it's also a personal preference where things can be reversed.

                  Looking good there although the camera effects don't show up the eyelids very well. How much to to pay to have them painted? I've returned my RDX ones and will be ordering the Kamei from Orange Tuning today!

                        Yep - I reckon they look pretty good when cleaned up. Just a bit of a pain to clean is all

                        Yeah, sorry about the effects:

                            DRL's

                            so I couldnt cover that top part up....

                            just my two cents thats all.
                            Hi Tigger,
                            have been trying to track down an after-market DRL set for my MY11 Tiguan and spotted this thread. Would you have any more info on how you put the DRL's in the top of the original Halogen lamps, and where you get them from?
                            Much appreciated,
                            Tiggy1

                              I highly doubt this mod has got anywhere yet but I'd be happily put straight if that wasn't the case. For starters the headlamps would need to be split open which is a task in itself on the latest type of lamps because the adhesive used is heat resistant. You would then to (in my understanding) to cut open the top section housing where that little design is. I noticed 4 distinct compartments as part of the headlamp design each of which could house a single high power LED and the chrome internal surround would act as a reflector. Being only 4 LED's though it wouldn't be very wide so not look as good as other manufacturers. If someone pulls its off though I've be really interested in seeing how the finished article looks!
