Thanks for keeping everyone in the loop Couchmotorist. I missed out on this GB but keenly awaiting the next one if WPLamps get their act together

Another dreaded Monday and another week left hanging in the balance ... I am to assume there's been no contact from Mark yet?

[couchmotorist]

Just sent an email to Mark. I will update everyone when I get a response (should be tomorrow).

Almost there...

Lo and behold:

"We have arranged the productions already, this week will surely can ship, but will at Friday or Saturday in this week, thanks.

Best Regards
Mark"

I'll keep people posted.

Alright, cool. So hopefully an ETA of sometime next week?

Exam done for now! Man I'm looking forward to seeing the headlights sometime next week!

Keen to get a hold of these!

I've noticed on the Winpower website that the V2s and GTI reps have a halogen cornering light?! Would these work on a comfortline? or on any of our Golfs?

Ps: anyone in/around Sydney keen on a group install?

Hey Point, sorry I didn't realise you PM'd me about the headlight bulbs.

H7 high beam should be able to be replaced with other H7s. Indicator bulbs I'm not sure but it should be easy to take it out of the housing, take a picture and show it to a Repco sales rep.

The halogen cornering lights I would assume requires VCDS for comfortline as you wouldn't have fog lights for cornering lights. I would assume the highlines don't need coding but we'll find out in due time.

all good - I've already ordered a set of H7 Osram Nightbreaker Unlimited high beam bulbs, I've schooled myself on bulbs and headlight tech lately so shouldn't be too hard to suss out what indicators the Winpowers use and replace them with LEDs.

im even keener now that I know the Winpower headlights have a turning feature in even keener as I miss the static turning feature of my last car.

Edit: i feel like the turning lights on the Winpowers might be wired to the indicators so they'll activate with the indicator?
