    hi, i'm new to this forum and new to car modifying but was really interested in doing something with my Mk5 TDI Golf headlights. i was just wondering the options i had and were is the best to buy them? i'm looking something that will give me that bluey tinge in the lights but nothin that looks too tacky. maybe a conversion or something? i'd really appreciate any feedback.

     

    Thanks. Big Smile

     The law doesn't like any blue lights to the front of a vehicle mate - could be making a lot of inconvenience for yourself

     it's those lights that look purple from certain angles but very bright and annoying to oncoming vehicles!

    get something like Osram cool blue, they give a whiter look than a standard bulb, or Osram NIGHT BREAKER

     

    Also the Philips EXTREME make the bulb look alot more 'white and bright' without the blue filter the osrams have.

    I've had a set of each and can say they are all good in their own way.
