ROYLANCE Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Like the so cool ones on the Golf plus. I have an account with Hella who are launching some next month but they look a bit tacky. They will also be launching the Angeleyes front headlamps too. My hella rep will be sending me pics and prices soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRobin Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 That's the one! - Hella - I remember now. What do I think? - It depends on the colour of your car and also it helps if you also have Xenons because they are silvery and shiny as well. I prefer the VW standard or smoked rear lights and would wait and see what LEDs VW might bring out on the Mk5 later. I would want to see them in real life and I don't dislike the OEM lights enough to want to change them. I'd rather put the money towards a performance mod such as suspension. But, each to their own, as always. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikemod Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I must say I don't really like the Led rear lights, it looks like someone has smashed your rear lenses or you have four big reversing lights. Maybe if they were smoked lenses it would look better. However they do look good when the are on. Although if you look at the passat ones from the side it looks like half of the Leds aren't on.

RedRobin Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 The BMW ones look awesome when on, especially at night. Otherwise they tend to look 'bling' and definitely look crunched! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] I second that, my BMW ones looked stunning. I love LED rear lights, just not the aftermarket . They always over design them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 ....That's exactly why I suggest waiting for Golf LEDs to come. I heard rumours but can anyone confirm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoSheds Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I wonder if the 2007 spec will have LED rears ? Isn't it normally changed April time ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nhs Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 Now that the Passat has LEDs and Hill Start, seems logical that they might come to the Golf for the 2007 model. They'd be missing a trick if they didn't - supposedly LEDs weigh less and pull less power, so add to performance, even if only marginally! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROYLANCE Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 I think the Hella ones look crap. It would make my Gti look like a Seat Ibiza. No no no no no! Found some more - Check this thread out at http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=59 I never knew there was some many options available. I too prefer the ones that look like the OE lights as in reply 19 but where can i get them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 After following a passat the other day i would rather not have the LED lights. As there not easy to see. I found the same problem with the golf+ ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROYLANCE Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 According to information in this thread LED lamps will be supplied by Valeo as OEM and will be available from June 2006. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=2381807 Not long to wait !

Snoopy Posted February 9, 2006 Report Share Posted February 9, 2006 It seems dealers are told of the 2007 spec on about 29 april and any car ordered after that is the new spec so June would make sence for the first of that model years cars to arrive.

Simonl Posted February 10, 2006 Report Share Posted February 10, 2006 When have you ever seen a car with an aftermarket light conversion and thought, man that looks stunning, so classy and cool Just think of those beemers from the 80's with the square headlamps! ...hmmm real nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
