Just found this and thought it may be useful if anyone is looking to 'blackpack' their FL Octavia.

WIll probably take another look in September once I have the Car.

Minimum order of 10 sets though.

Has DRL's built in but they look very blue in the photo's so it may be a no go.

I reckon those DRL's look cack.

I would be wary about transacting £2000 worth of business with China unless you actually see a set of these for real and that ain't going to happen without a commitment to a minimum of 10 sets that >could< be whiffy quality (CE for HID my backside) and questionable legality in the UK. Also you are going to have to pay import duty on that little lot..........................

*Shudder*

As said above, no after-market HID setup has got CE approval yet, so why this one should be the first I so very doubt it.

Er....no!!

Looks nice but after buying some Chinese made headlights off ebay..... No....... Just no thank you.

Er....no!!

+1

That'll be a no then

All valid points, thanks for the input. I'll just have to keep hunting about.

No offence, but ...........

CE mark.........

Those clever little Chinese people have their own mark to catch the unwary:

.....so, indeed they are probably quite legitimately "CE" marked, just not the CE mark you'd be expecting ;)

HID's, angel eyes and LED DRL's all in the same headlight?

On a Corsa or Saxo maybe, but not an Octavia, please!
