    Headlight trouble

    Just got the mk4 look headlights in the mail last night, it appears that HID's wont fit in them cause my HID bulbs are too long Is there a way to somehow run the HID's or do I have to get bright regular bulbs??

    Thanks,

    Simon.

    Perhaps get some sort of rubber plug or spacer type thing to make the bulb sit further back.

    I received my HID's just then, but my car is in the shop, So I can't test them out but I am still running mk3 lights and was looking to move up to mk4 ones.. Hopefully you find a fix for the issue.
