    Hi guys,
    New to the forum and about to pick up a 96 VR6 this weekend woot!!! Just wondering if anyone here has tried this kind of headlight kit? Are they legal, easy to fit etc?

    The first thing I noticed:
    "Fits: 93-98 VW Golf only, does not fit GTI or VR6"
    For the more Golf savvy... is there any difference in the headlights of a 2.0L Golf and the VR6?

    Also just found this one, although I'm sure there are many more... seems like something interesting to try...

    CAREFUL. These are American lights, for Americans who drive on the wrong side of the road.

    What does this mean? The light pattern is different. You *WILL* daze on coming drivers because your lights will be shining at THEM instead of the road.

    Also, angel eye is for BMW. Angel eye on anything besides BMW looks... odd.

    Hi Pullstarter. Welcome to the forums The only headlights worth going for are the ones manufactured by Hella or in.pro, which are a subsidiary of Hella I believe. These would offer the best fitment if not the best quality!

    Also, do you mind posting up where you're from and which VR6 you recently purchased? I've been looking for a VR6 as well, and had my eye on a 96 too!

    Hi Simon,
    welcome!!! those lights you have found are actually from Hong Kong and made in china.Quality can be varying ,take care!
    I usually buy from German Ebay and this seller usually has much better quality than those chinese made lights.
