Can anyone tell me if it is possible to fit the R-Line lights onto my GTI and where can I buy them...can't find them anywhere!!

Also has anyone bought the genuine VW Polo L.E.D day running lights, I've considered it but would like some thoughts?

Thanks!

I thought the R-line headlights were the same as any other polo headlamp? I had a look at my brothers SEL polo and my R-line and the headlamps are the same.

As for the LED day time running lights, have you got a link to them? Didn't even realize they existed lol

i had the leds fitted at vw last year on my polo ,my camera does pick up the lights very good but they are bright.

if you do decide to get leds fitted shop around at different vw garages because they give different prices.

Thanks everyone, I thought they did a Polo headlamp similar to that of a Tiguan R-Line. I really like the day running led's, they don't look very white...are they in person?

Hi, do the headlights and side lights go off when the leds are on (when the light switch is turned to the off position)?
Thanks

no leds are on all the time except when you use the indicators,i had a big fall out with bury vw over this issue,because it states on the accessories the lights go out when you put side lights on,but i got a good deal at the end,full valet,a full tank of petrol + £300 vouchers.i believe the accessories for leds have not yet been updated.

Cheers, I thought that may have been the case :(
