You don't fancy just fitting a 4 light grille then ? Mine has the standard one and is fine, but if you disconnect the inner (full beam) lamps I can see why everyone complains about Mark II lights ! Your car will probably have the wiring in there already.
Greg, Claires had the 4 light grill, but i don't like it, prefer the single for sure. The loom is bought from mattie G (TOP TOP Geezer tbh) - offered to send me loom to try before paying, although I have paid for it before he shipped. Anjd now have bought the Osram bulbs for 12 off ebay! So im happy... anyone know if you can buy uprated side light bulbs?
Okey Dokey!!! Well looks like the 8v will have MILES better lights once loom and new bulbs come... Need to also fit the buzzer for when the lights have been left on, got it ready to fit!
well who wants some? And we can get them bought? There just under 10 for 2. So i would say only need 3 people. Thats me, Bryan, wolfy? u want some? Us three?
u got eachothers email and il stick an email with the three of us to discuss payment and poo off the forum? Mines Richard.Saunders2000@ntlworld.com Rich
And are we defo sure these are the right lamps and they won't melt anything! They are 10watt rather than 5 watt so see the difference in bright ness!
What is the bloody point??? There is no useable light from a sidelight, why bother ur arse puttin a 10w bulb in
Gotta side with Andy here ! You never use your sidelights to see where you're going which is why I said not to bother.
the only reson you need to update the sidelights is so they dont look so yellow but ou can probably get led bulbs that are white anyway so i wouldnt bother rich. ive just got some uprated bulbs ffrom halfords i think there bosche there 100w 80w or somthing like that althought they say anything over 55W is illegal in a mk2 however for how crap 55w bulbs are i doubt youll be blinding anyone in a mk2 unfortunately i wont need my new bulbs much longer cause of my rallye grill lol!
233 White 6 Led Ultrabright BA9 Bulb http://www.ultraleds.com/ click on in car bulbs 12v then look down the list a few make sure you get the white ones, got bulbs from here before and there real quality i think these will fit in the sidelights and there 3.50 and should be a very clear white Edited by: Steve B
i was told somewhere that the dim dip thing has to be disconnected to run relays. and you can still tell you can tell on mine easily that the sidelights are yellow they look really yellow when on on there own, and you can see the really white light at one side of the lense and really yellow light on the other side of the lense when the headlights are on, of course the lenses are much bigger on a jetta anyway
