Today with my help Simon fitted my Xenons 8) I also fitted my newly purchased Cupra PD160 intake.

Intake - much much bigger than standard; :D

The neatness of the wires Simon was so very proud of;

Are they the same as the GTi now then Dino?

What does a Xenon bulb actually look like?

EDIT: They look quality Dino, nice one.

I don't have projector's like on your GTi. The bulb looks like a normal car bulb. Should have got some pics... :x

The kit was brought from www.hids4u.co.uk - Its the Pilot kit.

The intake makes it feel much more responsive.

I like the fact that even in the daylight you can see them lighting up signs you're approaching 8)

6000K which is kinda a blue tint but not overly.

Relatively easy to fit just a ball ache taking the bumper off.

Unless you can find somewhere else to mount the ballast's, yes the bumper has to come off.
