Good afternoon,

I am seriously considering getting a mk1 vRS. I noticed that the 'fog lights' are intergrated into the headlight clusters and look like projectors. I have looked at the L&K mk1 headlights and it seems the high/low beams are projectors. Is it possible to replace the vRS headlight clusters with L&K clusters? I would like to have projector headlights on the vRS.

Thanks for any insight!

Main lights and dipped are the big inner ones. Fog lights are the outer ones. Side lights the tiny ones.

If you get vcds and a cable you can change them over, amongst many other things!.

Hi yes can retrofit l&k on the mk1 Octavia,but you will need an adapter cable to plug and play. As for the l&k light cluster to fog light is still the outer one,dip beam middle,main beam is the inner one with the sidelight in the bottom of it.

On our L&K, with oem xenons, the outer is a projector fog, next is the dipped xenon projector, then innermost is the normal main beam. As far as I know, if oem xenons are not fitted, the outer is a projector fog, then there is a larger combined dipped/main.

 

I understand it is a pita to fit the oem xenon lamps to cars that did not have xenons fitted in the factory; the wiring loom is different, and the system includes level sensors mounted on front and rear suspension. Not sure if there are other differences as well.

i have that system but i have daybreaker bulbs fitted and the auto levelling no longer works.. You are correct though!. I haven't tried going bat to xenon yet but will look into it first!.
