XENON in the Scirocco - was : euro lights + protectors + heat = cracked euro lights
Hello Toby,
sorry to hear this !
I can suggest to use Philips Blue vision instead,
and I also have them on my GT-II,
they emit a cold white light that is *NOT* blueish.
Peter who is a friend of mine from Scirocco Club Hungary
has installed Xenon-Lights into his Euro-beams.
Very good light output....
here a few pics that I have made while being there :

Sorry to hear this... cause it happened to me too!
I also have 80/100's
I only noticed my crack after I had needed the high beams
one night...next day is when I saw the crack...
no chips in the lens so it must have been from the heat.
No good...those 80/100's are sooo nice, but obviously a better
solution is needed.
Any ideas?
