Yea, whats good company for the kit to convert... any links

 

Thx! I'll check it out. The wife's Passat required bumper removal...

I went to give you a rep but need to spread some around first

 

Here are the instructions:

 

awesome - thanks!

 

So anyone have a product they recommend for the conversion....

 

look at my post for the conversion. hidextra.com has all the kits and bulbs and does the color match for the bulbs

 

Same here, great company and board sponsor. Im sure there are a few facts missing from the comments.

 

I'd suggest oem style 4100k type, to avoid looking blue or purple. 5,800 or 6k could look good if the measurement is accurate but typically the kits are all over the place color wise vs. what they market it as kelvin wise with many 6k kits being blue and purple which cheapens the look of the car.

 

Maybe. But if you DO end up with a defective bulb, good luck to you. Not surprisingly, their address is actually a PO BOX number in Los Alamitos, CA, and they don't have a customer service phone number. They use a 3rd part checkout system, and their website is registered with GoDaddy. Perhaps that puts things into context...

 

My 09 comes w/ factory Xenon but I didn't like the brightness and color of it. So I went to ebay and bought a 6000k Ultinon and I love it. I think I paid less than $100 shipped. You can't really go wrong w/ German made bulb. Be sure to check the red arc when you get them. There are so many "licensed" Philips bulb that doesn't have red arc. I even had Philips Xenon kit for BMW which I highly recommend. These Philips bulb starts w/ purple and gradually turn to pure white. It's probably the brightest bulb you can find (35w). Good luck!

 

Kindly post your order number or PM it, using your name listed on 6speed we can't come up with an order linked to it.

 

Do you guys have a conversion kit?

 

Afraid not, we did but supplier problems in Japan = no more kits for us.

Just to add, when you order from us you get an e-mail with confirmation and toll free number for return, support RMA instructions etc. if required. Using 2CO for our merchant processing AND customer service log creates a solid paper trail for returns, warranty etc. so its transparent. We cant just 'not send a bulb' or 'return e-mails' or your order will be refunded by 2CO with one swift toll free phone call.

 

All that sounds great. I'll place an order with you in a few weeks, to coincide with the front DRL from ROTTEC. Would you consider a group buy on your 5800k bulbs? It sounds like they will match the DRL LEDs that Ray is selling, and he's already got over 50 orders...

 

We prefer no group buys but rather work with each customer, our small volumes have created issues meeting group buy demand in the past. When the time comes send us an e-mail and we will take care of you.

Would gladly send a pair to Rottec for them to test and compare color.
