Well I have been wanting HIDs for the Tiguan since I got her... but I won't drop HIDs without a projector and well I have never wanted to spend the money on the OEM set up.

So I have always kept my eye out on ebay for headlights, waiting to see if someone had something that looked good and was good enough to run HIDs in...

Which lead me to: http://www.ebay.com/itm/271132002653...84.m1497.l2648

I thought they looked good enough and I could finally get some good light output.

(my office lighting really makes for taking pictures a hard task)









I think the over all build looks good. But I ran into a few issues during the fitting.





Light Out put is nice...





Overall not sure I am happy and maybe going back to my old set up this weekend.
I know if you're a show goer this set up will lose you points as they aren't clean. And I think the projector housing in the headlights are not seeded well b.c they have a little play in them over bumps.

The Light out put is very nice so for doing that right.

Old Cheap set of HIDs I have had sitting in box for like 4 years..
