So whats the difference between saloon and cabby H/L,s ??

My lenses are knackered wont clean up,so got to replace ,cant find anywhere that sells just lenses.

Cab ones have projectors, saloon and avant don't. They are also a completely different shape

Mine are projectors headlights on a saloon

 

[VagCabby]

Yeah I'm getting confused, ignore me lol, B7 didn't have projectors unless fitted with xenon

 

[Darran]

So they wont fit in a cabby?

 

[VagCabby]

No, unfortunately not, every front end panel on the cab is different to the saloon

Every part on a cabriolet is different to the saloon

Well.......i decided i wasn't going to be beaten by some dirt so.....................i set about my h/ls with some g3 some p1000 and a can of acrylic laquer. pics to follow.

This is what they looked like after some G3 and a good 30 mins flatting with P1000, before i did this they were even worse!

What happens is the original factory laquer wears and goes patchy , this also allows dirt to penetrate the polycrbonate.


So now to add some acrylic laquer.

Both laquered and refitted
