Is it possible to buy the part that the automatic adjuster ball sits in for a GTI headlight? Really don't want to fork out for a new headlight!
It's only held in by a screw so I don't see why not..

Nooooooo, you can't...
But they are the same clips as in all mk5 headlights, so buy some used standard headlights and take one from there...

Re: Headlight help
No and yes any headlight will do
The replacement ones use a different type of plastic to stop this happening

Re: Headlight help
Great stuff, need to find myself a headlight now...I'll see how much a new one (non gti) is through work, if it's not that expensive I'll just get it
Also need to reset the headlight levels with VAGCOM as I didn't do it when I lowered it
