High quality Hella product uses the original CELIS technology produces bright white 6000K light rings. Requires modification to fit into North American cars. The European versions of the Golf and Jetta 3 have different front ends than the North American versions of these cars. Therefore, European spec headlights will NOT bolt directly onto a North American car without some modifications.
You have 2 options: 1) Modify your vehicle to accept these lights, or 2) Install a european spec radiator support. If you choose to modify your vehicle, you will need to trim away a small part of your radiator support, fabricate simple aluminum L-brackets, and use some spacers in order to get a good fit. If you are patient, and mechanically inclined, this is something you can do yourself. The most difficult part is ensuring there is a nice even gap between each headlight and the grille/bumper/fender/hood. If you do not feel confident in your ability to install these lights, HIRE A PROFESSIONAL. If you choose to install the european spec rad support, please be aware that on cars with air conditioning, one of the A/C hoses is routed through your rad support so you will have to have your A/C system Discharged before and Recharged after the installation of the new rad support.
All our lights are sold as sets (left & right).
