    French spec for vr6 & g60 are NLA
    Thinking about a TDI swap? Review the TDI swap directory

    You will need to buy normal euros and install the yellow caps

    Curious how the OEM French spec lights came from the factory, with chrome caps, or all yellow?

    With an all-yellow (not chrome tip) cap

    Only the french-spec fogs came with a complete yellow reflector

    someone say french fogs?



    personally i know it's not correct but i prefer to buy regular ecodes and just paint the reflector with candy yellow paint and smoke the housings... had a nice set done like this until someone decided to steal them on me needless to say comprehensive is not mandatory
