They look identical I have a hid kit in it already.

I need to find a set of genuine bi xenons that are smashed or badly damaged and rob the bi xenon projector and flapper unit and swap the projector unit. Think it will swap straight over

These headlights look so complicated to a noobie!  :signLOL: But look the total business! Such a good upgrade

me too.  Read a comment that they aren't as good as standard reflector lights so although they look great I don't want to lose performance.  Really like how they look though....

I'm also interested to install the Hella xenon look lights (or the FK's?!), but how can I connect an aftermarket 5000K HID ballast kit?
I'm asking this because about a year ago I installed a (pilot) HID kit in my original GTI halogen headlights, but after a while the wiper-motor failed (common problem when installing hid kits in mk5's), so I removed the HID kit and VW installed a new wiper-motor...

I've been quoted by Marcus £291 at the moment - still havent bought any yet though - as the FK's look the same!
