Dylan's MK3 Golf build

[AKA VR6]

Id suggest splicing into rear wiring, cheaper and easier.

Okay splicing it is! Now, what wire should I use?

Oh and I also fitted 6K HID's and got rear ended by an Xtrail. Lol. As you can see in the rear photo of the car, where the GL badge is. So that is also another job, to fix that because I didn't have insurance at the time ( good one lel)

The car is looking nice with white paint, gunmetal wheels and a bit of a lowering. Very clean. Headlights look good as they are, I wouldn't bother getting cheapies from overseas.

I just read your thread and cannot believe how much bad luck you've had. Hopefully it's smooth sailing from here on.

Looking Mint and clean as. You've done all the mods I want to do to mine, What sort of Fog Lights did you use? Cheers
