Hi, I recently spotted a T25 (with foreign plates) which had a set of angel eyes, are these available in the UK?

Try searching the web for Mk 1 Golf stuff. With a little bit of mucking around they will fit.

They're just small spotlights.

I have them on mine.They are mini 7" off "ebay".I used the chrome retaining ring and welded some lugs on to the original fitting ring.Have now been through two mots with them(every year i get advised about the Blue halo rings-hehe)

i've heard from a mate in the know that mk2 golf lights fit with a little bit of modding. so find some mk2 golf angel eyes and they should fit. i'm looking to fit some soon when i do i will let you all know whats involved.

You cabn weld the Mk2 golf mounting brackets directly onto the adjuster ring.
Just done that on my SA 4 lamp grille (sold already!) but I will be using Mk1 lenses as it only minor trimming needed with those.

Hi Kowtec.

Poshbuggers: how much fiddling around is needed to get Mk1 lamps to fit then? I was looking as some Mk1 cross hair lamps - very cool IMHO. Which is easier Mk1 or Mk2? Do you need to adjust both with some welding?
Cheers

Mine are golf mk 1 gti angel eyes from big boys toys - £99. Little bit of cuttin n drillin n bolting makes em fit! As usual first one took most of the day 2nd one half hour and of course first ones ever so slightly askew but have i had a chance to fix it yet?
Vans called Elly n she is a UK van jus on white German style plates - not been pulled over yet! PM me if u wana have a closer look, thinkin bout organisin a T3 Brighton cruise/meet if we get any Summer anyone up for it?
