    Thanks for that mate. Answered most of my questions then!
    Was only going to replace my drivers side tail light as its cracked, but thought i might aswell go a set of vr6 ones, they look so much better IMO!
    Will most probably get a matching dual chamber head light in that case! Cheers for the heads up on what to watch out for

    Hopefully be trial fitting a few sets of wheels next week, got a set of old skool Volks, Buddy Club P1s and few sets of genuine Watanabes, so will see what looks the best and what fits up nicely. Im all for good offsets, nothing worse than seeing wheels way inside the guards tucked away :-\

    I like your thinking!

    Post up pics of the old Volks! I love my wheels

    You'll find a lot of those wheels won't fit the 4x100 Golf though

    Thanks for that! Went and got a few quotes today, Euro Spares wanted $250 for a VR6 headlight and have to get them sent from interstate... pricey huh!

    Sourced some VR6 lights thanks to KI11Z, so thats that sorted

    Now to find some MK4 front guard indicators (clear ones). Pulled one out from dad's MK4 and it appears to fit up nicely and look pretty good, just needa cut off and resolder the plugs so they work. Been quoted ~$35 each from VW new, or ~$25 each from Euro Spares. See if i can get them a little cheaper than that from someones wreck

    Dont worry, will have plenty of pics. Love taking photos so dont need an excuse to take some happy snaps of the Golf!!

    Oh you bet I am! Haha!

    One more thing, im looking at getting a spare key made up and the car only came with one and I am always afraid of losing it

    I have been quoted about $120 for a new 1 supplied, cut and chipped to suit the car, does this sound about right? VW wanted well over $200
