    Has anyone have experience with these aftermarket led headlights?

    I’m not sure that is correct, i had a SEAT Leon FR with LED’s and the beam angle was handed for RHD (higher on the left hand side with your bum in the drivers seat) check for youself next time against a garage door or such likes.

    Has anyone have experience with these aftermarket led headlights?

    Yeah thats what i was worried about. i certainly wouldn’t a) want to dazzle other drivers b) have to re-fit standard lights every 12 months for MOT i have an s-line bumper but still have the halogen headlights and it looks naff.

    Tyre v wheel size

    All 235 wide tyres will give you is a higher purchase price the extra grip over 10mm will be negligible. Stick with the 225’s as they will be cheaper

    Remap with Warranty

    I used one on my 1.5 TSI it’s a compromise from a full blown remap but not a bad choice if you want to keep your warranty in tact. the stuff they supply is of decent quality and the looms supplied use OEM connectors. no experience of how easy it is to hook into a 2.0l though. Some of the...
