Don't do it!

Standard Mk5 headlights look so nice and crystally

Yeah I know what you mean. They look good standard. Always loved the rings though. Also wouldn't the projectors make the HID's look even better?

They would, i had an idea of getting angel eyes but once i replaced my headlights with much better condition ones

I fell in love with them again, plus the HIDs look soo good on standard headlamps. Just my opinion tho mate

You should get coilovers with the money instead, give it a nice tidy drop, then your will look the dogs danglies

I was looking at a great guide on here and very tempted as didn't realise how easy it is. Going on my X-mas list I think!

Did you order your sticker? Still waiting for mine

What sticker?

lolhoward · Post by **lolhoward** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 12:00 am

UK-POLOS.NET. Thought you said you were after one. Might not have been you then?

Do you know the measurements of standard VW alloys, such as our SE ones. Only as my tyres aren't looking that good and may replace them all so might aswell get a cheap alloy/tyre set.

3LL1077 · Post by **3LL1077** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 12:03 am

Our SE alloys are 14". Your tyres should be 185/55/14

I'm after a uk polos sticker but i want an internal one, do they do them ?

Cheers, tyre size was what I was after. Yeah i've ordered an internal one.

I'll have to see what it looks like when you put it in

Let us know what wheels etc your after and we can advise you, if you go for 15" wheels you need 45 profile then your speedo wont be out

lolhoward · Post by **lolhoward** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 12:20 am

Will do.

Cheers mate. Only gonna get some if all my tyre's need replacing and cant afford nothing too special. Just something a bit smarter than the SE wheels.

It makes no difference does it? Either order ones from a TT or some from a Mk VII GTi?

Also are the new GTi pedals a direct replacement?
