    Mk2 Headlight conversion?

    10-11-2009 11:53 PM #1
    Hello, 1st id like to say im kinda new, and if this is the wrong place for this thread, sorry=D and please point me in the right direction.

    I might be buying my first GTi soon, and it has those lame-o looking rectangular headlights(idk if its stock, or the guy swapped the circle ones out) but my question is can i convert it to/back to the circular ones? Is it time consuming, and how much would it cost?

    Just trying to follow my dream, Thank you=D

    Cost depends on where you get your parts. You'll need the rad support, grille and headlights.

    go to RPIEQUIPPED.COM they sell full kits for the conversion and everything you need to do it for under $400, might be worth checking out.
