Title: MK5 xenon headlights with DRL
Post by: SurreyED30 on January 27, 2014, 06:17:25 pm
Evening all

Seen a MK5 Gti today whilst at work and noticed he/she had xenon headlights but with MK6 'look' DRL in the headlight? I thought they looked quite smart and was wondering if anyone knew were to buy them or a link to a site so I can get prices etc.

If anyone on here has them a pic would be good and also info on where you brought yours and did you need programming etc

Thanks J

Are you referring to the sidelights on the xenons headlights themselves?

Get drl bulb for fogs or drl lights rather then buying a led halogen aftermarket non sense headlights. Genuine xenon are your best option if you want to upgrade. Thats how I see it..

I had a similar set on my mk5 before upgrading to xenon's. They were from Germany iirc.
I Dont have a pic with the DRLs turned on, but the DRLs weren't very bright.
The lights them selves had a black lenses housing and looked quite good.
