Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Are you planning to replace the headlamp units for the ones with foglights? If so it's going to cost a fair bit. You'll need 2x headlamps, 1x relay, 1x switch and associated wiring and connections. It's do-able and a neat job but you'll need a VW wiring diagram to locate the correct terminals.

    Done it to my astra, cost only €100.

    the €100 was to pay for the lights and the interior switch system(from a scrappies). The Astra's that dont have fogs still have the loom under the hood.

    I had to remove the front bumper, connect up lights and the switch. Took all of 20 mins. The bumper had markings on the back for the cut-outs and done that with a dremel. Looks perfect and nobody could tell the difference.

    Would be worth considering doin yourself as its dead easy and can be done in a few hours. The hardest thing for you being wiring the loom up.

    Terminals and fuse diagrams are usually in the manual


    Good luck!
