Install is a snap since all you do is loosen a side screw, unclip the plastic connection, slide out the headlight to reach the harness plug-in, and install that plug in the Win Power light. They are totally 'plug and play' with no other modifications needed and work well. I don't see any difference in the design when matched up to the OEM ones.
However I found when I fitted genuine Valeo-branded E-codes to my 2000 that I had, the beam was a little more uniform looking and less splotchy.
i bought the blacked out version of the stock headlight, i liked them
The only major difference appears to be the manufacturer of the sets. The ECS ones are made by Hella and the Parts4Euro ones are made by Depo. Go with the Hella.
Well the Tiguan was finished in less than 24 hours and it's like a totally new vehicle! I don't know to what extent things were amiss with the car before the really noticeable thing (headlights) prompted more investigation, but it drives and shifts so much better now that it's been fixed.
Mine used to get moisture inside on the passenger side. Only when I decided to completely separate the lenses from the housing to fix the adjusters did they seal properly. Just used a clear silicone around it.
Hey, I just bought a set of Hella Quad Headlights for my MK3.
the only difference ive noticed was that dj auto had a white plastic housing and they used crappy glue. where as hella used black plastic and actually sealed the headlamp.
See.. Depo light suck serious donkey d!@#.... Here is a pic of the cracking I was talking about. This only took about a year to show up. Notice how there's even 3M chip protecting film over the covers. Complete garbage.
I replaced my OEM headlights a few years ago with DEPOs (absolute crap) lights after an accident and the insurance wouldn't pay for OEMs. After a few years of degrading visibility (spiderweb cracks throughout the plastic covers/lenses and crappy reflectors to begin with) I'm tired of not being able to see at night. * NOTE * NEVER BUY DEPO LIGHTS guys.
