    Aftermarket XENON LED parking headlights - anyone tried these?

    Dectane VW Polo 6R Scheinwerfer-Set Dayline chrom Audi Tuning, BMW Tuning, VW Tuning, Opel Tuning, Mercedes Tuning, Mini Tuning

    Anyone have any knowledge of this product, any good etc?

    I have just ordered a Milltek cat back exhaust from Orange-Tuning Germany. Seem a good company to deal with, good with English and reasonable postage rates (90 euros DHL Premium postage for the exhaust system).

    Feel free to move this post to a more appropriate thread. Seems it did not belong under 'specialist' category.

    If you have halogen's as standard it will be prohibitivley expensive to install these legally.

    Best bet is to get a set suitable for halogen bulbs.

    Stay away from these headlights, they are very good at collecting water inside and look cheap in silver

    I have had them on my shopping trolley for over a year and love them, however I have the blacked out version.

    The one I ordered I made sure there is a module to allow Bi-Xenon functionality and to support H7 Halogen globes (road compliance)

    I've been looking at the ones from HK as they are RHD, on ebay. They're listed as bi-xenon headlights but say compatible with halogens. Does that mean they come with holders for H7 halogens as well as bi-xenons? Sorry for the noob question.

    Well the ones I have (from Dectane), have two sockets...one for the Bi-xenon and H7 globes...the Bi-xenon requires some auto electrical tinkering where as if you go H7 its plug and play.

    I think I will give those headlights a miss - thanks for the advice team_v etc.

    Zakarados: As to the Milltek cat back I did not do nearly as well as GTI-JOE who purchased the Milltek some time ago from Orange-Tuning when I suspect our dollar was buying 10% + more euros. Way more $$ than I originally calculated but what the heck still a lot cheaper than I was quoted by a few Australian sellers.

    From Orange-Tuning (who have ordered it from Milltek UK) 549 euros + 90 euros delivery about $930 AU
    From AMD Tuning Essex UK 446 GBP (quoted as "10% off" special) + 180 GBP delivery about $1050 AU

    Orange-Tuning accepted Paypal payment which made my decision easier.

    I will post an audio file when it's fitted.
