As long as they let enough light though and you will more than likely need to put a reflector on the rear.

How do you mean?

Have you seen something I haven't.

Are these not just a direct replacement?

Being darkened like that they will obviously not allow as much light out as standard ones do.

The reflector that is build into the rear lense won't be visible i imagine and if so you will need a red reflector on either side of the car.

Do you know if they are E marked?

Yeh,

They're E-marked, i don't really wanna get those reflectors, do you mean the ones which stick onto the lights?

That would sort of ruin their effect? What will happen if i get pulled over for them?

If the reflector is not visible you will need to use the stick on kind, which will need to be stuck anywhere on the rear, one either side....

F**k, tht is disapointing,

Do you rekon if they pull me over, and i dont have them on, i'll be fined or something?

You'll just get a telling off and told to put them back on. Make sure you have them on for your MOT though.

Make sure you get some pics up when they are on

Yeah,

Well, to be perfectly honest, i may aswell just put the stock ones back on for an MOT (stock grille necessary for MOT also?).

Yeh, pictures would be nice, but how do u do it? it doesnt seem tht easy?

Should look good on a black car - only pics will tell.

Agreed,

It was these or the ones off the 9N2,

And some people already have the 9N2 ones, you gotta be different to survive in this polo game

are they home made ones?

This is the thing,

I just dont know, they could be, and if they are, the bloke selling them must be making a killing!

His other items would suggest they are home-made, not a bad idea to be fair.
