Re: Another Euro Lights Question

["Ewan Hopkins" <ewanhopkins@hotmail.com>]

My wife's GT had dual lights from a japanese minivan (Hiace maybe?)which 
looked like the early euro MKII scirocco GTI lights - it's what I thought 
they were until I looked a bit closer - the 'Made in Japan' gave it away!. 
The look quite like the american spec lights but they are H4/H1 and give a 
pretty reasonable light pattern. They were mounted on butchered standard 
scirocco backplates.
