====================================
Just in case someone else did not say this - Vanagan
(rectangular) main beam lights are not the same as and
will not work as Scirocco 2 "euro" lights.

The high beams will work in "typical" euro Scirocco 2 
headlight setup.

I say "typical" since there are three different
headlight set-ups on european Sciroccos . . .
