they're DJ auto, distributed by Helix. In terms of quality they seem pretty good (i just bought them and installed them yesterday). Light output is better than stock, but you probably are going to want to buy silverstar bulbs to to get the best results. For the money, they are really good (so far). Glass lenses, plastic back cover with clips, and they look awesome.
Owner reviews for headlights
I have these on my GTI and they are super bright and sexy!
OE - HID headlights made by Bosch
I have the standard head lights. I think they are great. The way I look at it one less then to go wrong. Plus I saved $1600.00.
The AFS system is amazing, BUT I find that even the base standard headlights is sufficiently bright at night. Even on the dark texas roads. I've driven a number of japanese and domestic vehicles in the past couple of years, and nothing with standard headlights comes close to the passats standard headlights in terms of brightness and amount of coverage it shines on the road.
The best bag for the buck is a set of Hella e-codes w. +50% bulbs like Phillips Vision Plus or Osram Silverstars. You will not be diasppointed w/ the perfromance. I've had almost every set of lights for a MKIV and I like regualr e-codes(either projector or reflector) over OEM HIDs.
does anyone have pics of HID Ecodes
The ones I had on my Jetta without fogs were just fine for the price I paid ....
last year i did the mistake of buying them and they will not fit anf the light is not that good.
they look like crap imo. too many gaps on the side, top, bottom etc... they just don't look like they belong. that and you have to bootleg the install just to hide everything. shouldn't have to be like that. keep it clean.
