UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

I know that a lot of people have a low opinion of the "lexus" style lights but i was wondering whether i would have any problems if i were to buy a set from Germany as they are a lot cheaper than buying them in the UK.

I'd ask Dan (UK_POLO_GTI) he bought some and had problems. I think they leaked.

James.

oh that sounds good

Actually, I quite like those lights!

Much better than the previous set I saw floating round here, with the plastic divisions between each light.

I got those lights direct from germany for €129 and i had no problems.They were very well packaged and i think they look good.

See:

Didn't have any leaks at all?? Well i'm pretty sure what i'm going to spend some of my next pay cheque on!! How much was postage and packaging from abroad??

the only thing is that if theres only 1 fog or reversing light,lik on the k5, then they will be the wrong way round

AH true, well i'm alright with the reversing lights, but any how as your sig says Polo2k

There are two reversing lights on these clusters and two fog lights. When you plug in the plug that came off your existing clusters, only a connection is made to the lights that you had already i.e. my car only had the right fog light working when it was turned on - it is the same now.Both reversing lights come on when i put it in reverse - same as on old clusters.

and no, no leaks or anything and i have them three/four weeks...seem grand to me - the all in cost was €150 for them including 2 day postage to ireland

A fairly straightforward install by the sounds of things then?

I think they'd look rather pukka on my black Polo. Gonna sort out lowering first though.

EDIT: Just noticed that 'Performance Polo' sticker in the back window. What's all that about?
