As above. Driving home tonight reminded me how diabolical the headlights are on my passat. I need brighter and whiter lights as opposed to the dim yellowy rubbish it currently has.
I don't want an HID kit because I don't trust the cheap ones and I don't want to pay £100's on a proper kit...
They won't pre-order anything, it will need to be tested before they agree to anything.

Not to scare you but I have a friend that has had 10+ X5's all brand new from My...
