UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

i actually think this is the best colour for a mk5 tbh.

nice progress.


and that messup with the masking tape looks funny
(i know it obv did the job but i hope you didn't drive around like it??)

Flush and solid, been there ever since!

And Pip no I didn't drive around with it like that, I waited for a nice sunny day and then took my other car!

Not been on for a while so here is a quick update of what I have done so far, firstly I have installed a 7” flip out monitor with a free view box



I have repainted and re-fixed my vw badges (please excuse the dirt in these pics haven’t had time to clean the car)



Added a spoiler from Jordan_eff




I also put led’s in my fog lights and also in my angel eyes but 3 led’s have blown on either side so they need replacing, cheap chinese crap lol





All comments welcome

I ordered myself some of those LED fogs the otherday. they good quite good!

Just received 20 of these today to replace the cheap led's from china that I used in my angel ayes. Each unit has 3 led's and is rated up to 18 volts so should be ok unlike the last ones. Ordered them off ultraleds.co.uk yesterday and they arrived today, I’m impressed.

quality, looks like the same spoiler I have!

that screen + freeview simply awesome

Yea think the spoiler is the same, I decided I wanted one after I saw how good it looked on yours
The TV + Freeview is good especially when waiting around for people lol it’s just a cheap screen off ebay and a £15 free view box from asda with an external car ariel

Received these today whilst at work, looks like i have alot of new bulbs to be fitting at weekend

Yea got the pin holes filled by a mate at a body shop, and then sprayed it myself. I fitted the HID’s at weekend they are great seem 10 times better than a normal filament bulb.

cars looking great mate,
how easy were the hids to fit?

Cheers mate
They are quite easy to fit the wiring was plug and play realy, the hardest part for me was cutting the 2.5cm holes into the back of the headlight covers for the HID wiring. They are realy good to drive with even in the angels

im trying to find leds to replace the angel eye bulbs in my 9n. the ones u picture dont look anything like the original bulb. do they fit properly and what do they look like at nite

thanks

Yea you’re right they don’t look 1 bit like a normal 286 bulb however they seemed to just fit in place. If you have FK angels that use a 286 bulb I can’t see you having any problems. They don’t look the best during the day but at night there allot brighter far better than using a 286 single led. I’ll post some pictures of them at night for you .

cheers dood

how long u been runnin em now

any blown yet ??

Had them on for about 2 weeks now and none have blown, they are rated at 18V and have a 2 year warranty so should be ok.
