spankit Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 search for a thread on zenon gas bulbs, 50% extra light for aprox £16. Going from memory here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMB Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 osram silverstars I find the best h7 for the mk5. Have fitted 4 into mine, and find them to offer good even spread, nice white light rather than orange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanH Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Easy to fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMB Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 first one took me 10 mins, as it was a pain to align the keyway on one side, but after that each one (dip and main beam) took 2 mins each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanH Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Thanks for that! Two cars ago I had a GT TDi 130 that needed a day in the workshop and a Degree in Advanced Engineering to change the headlamp bulbs. Is the H7 a generic fit, or do you need to specify VW Golf? Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
