    I know to some of you it must sound crazy, but I really like the 4 round headlights on the S1 and I was wondering how hard it would be to fit to a S2 Scirocco.

    The Euro light thing is getting really old and I like to do oddball stuff to my cars as long as it doesn't look awful when its done. Has it been done before? Photoshop even?

    It looks cool in my head but ...

    Any advice would help since have never worked on a S1. Thanks.

    I Will Not talk you Down, Quad Rounds Forever!

    I WILL not talk you down
    You WILL install Quad Rounds
    We WILL enjoy your build thread
    And thats HOW it will be.



    (Actually, Brad Pitt in 'Meet Joe Black' did it too: "

    • Enough!
      What I know is what I want, and what I want is Quad Rounds (Susan).

    • And I will have them (her), and they (she) will have me.

    • And that's the way it's going to be. And there's nothing you can do
    ... but I digress...)

    Izzy's car is foiyn.

    I've never formally compared my cars but my impression has been that quad rounds light up the road better.

    @ Iroczgirl: Is this you car? I hope it´s ok for you that I´ve "stolen" your picture for our always changing forum header in the www.scirocco-lounge.com

    Take a look and you will find your car. We Germans love round lights in the MK2!

    If it is a problem for you that your car is our header we will change that. No problem! But I hope not...be proud of this beautiful frontside.

    'tis correct. In fact, that was 10 years ago. It's my 10 year anniversary and I'm doing everything I can to make it back there for it.
