cant seem to find any at a decent price on ebay and i swear they weren't £500 before?? thats more the price for actual xenons from VW so wondering if anyone knew where i can find them at a better price? thanks!

The best price ones I found are item no 200579708297 on eBay. They are from a company called tuning fanatics in Germany. I bought a pair and fitted them myself. They are direct replacement and made by hella. They were delivered quickly and very well packaged. Only thing I did was put some Phillips extreme bulbs in them before I fitted them. Hope this helps

I have ordered from them too and currently waiting on delivery :happy2:

Just ordered a set from this guy,

They are Hella, had to pm him for RHD lights, 344 Euro that's including P&P so in total about £284 which is a hell of a lot cheaper than the tuning fanatics £355.
He speaks great english, give him a pm over on ebay see what he can do for you mate ;)

i may be wrong...however im *quite* sure the genuine hella LHD and RHD units are actually identical, and all thats used to flip them between LHD/RHD is a little lever inside the projector to swap where the 'kickup' of the beam is... similar to how the setup is on OEM xenons...

Check out TRUPART they do depo and they have a headlight that is like oem and black xenon

thanks guys really helpful :happy2:

Just for info incase anyone comes across this thread while searching, I ordered a set of these from Tuning Fanatics on the 2nd April. I never received them and have only just got my money back after opening a case with ebay and escalating it further. I would advise that you DO NOT buy from Tuning Fanatics as they never respond to emails and i think had no intentions of refunding me themselves.
I am currently speaking with the guy who Jonny recommended to see what he can do for me.

Glad you got your money back ;) Hope Markus can sort you out :)

Mine finally arrived, apparently Markus had problems sourcing them from Hella. They are fitted now with HID, they work perfectly.

i'd just like to say i've bought from tuning fanatics loads of times...never had a single problem with them - however i will add that when communicating with them I do email them in german and get very prompt replies back (google translate is your friend here...) the one/two times i mailed in english i didnt get a reply back either...
