Tell me how do you reseal the headlights?

put them back in the oven , gas mark 4, for 5 - 7 mins to soften the glue & squeeze them back together !

Derek if you wanted an Audi you should just buy one

oddly i have ordered a set for the same thing it was going to be the TT look or ring style

Ha!, funnily enough I am half way through this type of thang myself at the mo!, nice on Derek, looks good, you got a link to the ebay thang. I have individual 10mm leds I am experimenting with no holder yet but probably a custom, BUT your idea looks like less work!

Ta, That's the same place I got the 10mm ultra bright from!, Looks good, I like it.

A couple of pics... my camera is not that good at night, but you get the drift. they are very bright & very effective !!

[Paul Beazer]

But are they legal?

Is your car now called Kitt?

[SGHOM]

But are they legal?

dunno ?? but they are only used in the abbey car park.

[Louis]

I'm not sure on the legal side of things. I was really looking for an led side light, to replace the 5w bulb in the headlight, and was going to use 1 x 10mm led as a sidelight, (and then things gathered momentum and it escalated to an audi type thang!) But someone did say to me that an led may be too bright for a side light???, So not sure on that. My bthinking is, it is a light so that people can see you, and doesn't have to be as bright a a headlight, but I don't see a prob with it being brighter that other sidelights, What do you reckon??

[SGHOM]

They are not as bright as the glare from my camera makes out. certainly not as bright as Audi's.

[Louis]

Derek, that looks excellent, it seems to be being projected by the headlight reflector?. might be an idea to try and seal them in so theyare seperate from the main lights?, just a thought!

I can't see why it wouldn't be legal if angel eyes are? Also, does anyone think that this is the next "in" thing after the angel eyes craze? Would like to see better pics though

Watch out for the green demon at Donington on Saturday, anyone who turns up will see what i mean.

There was a query on my son's Mk4 Golf GTi at MOT time. He's got Hella angel eyes and the tester said they were too blue ....... but he let them go.

Yeah, I was going to do the angel eye thang and then I thought it's starting to look dated, especially when not on BM's, so I am going for an led sidelight, but trying to keep it looking stock!. Like you said there is a danger of it ending up looking like you were part of a fad!.
I see golfs and audi's with the leds and they do look good, and I do like how derek's look, bnut I may just go with one in each lamp!

[SGHOM]

I'll try & take a pic at dusk, so you can see the effect/brightness & not just the glare.

[SGHOM]

Would like to see better pics though

the best I can do.
