I am not at stock height, but I have changed the headlight aiming. What I look for is that the cutoff point is about at the trunkline of cars in front of me and that seems to work well.
I have driven my GTI S at night and never once thought to myself that I wished I had paid more money for a Sport GTI so I could have the Xenons. Nor have I once thought I need my headlights to turn for me as I turn a corner. I see just fine when cornering at night with my halogens.
I have the A3 12v plug, LED GTI tails, all my interior lights have been switched to LED including the trunk and license plate, and I just order European Golf R headlights for my GTI should look sweet once there on.
I've just done a halogen to Golf R style projector headlight swap on my 2010 GTI here in Australia. I am very happy with the headlights overall. My headlights are Eagle Eye brand and look exactly the same as the Golf R silver housings. I was pleasantly surprised to know that fitment was great, quality also looks great, plugs and wiring were concealed and neat, and the light output is much better than the factory halogens.
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.
I have a nice set of mk3 1993-1999 volkswagen jetta smoked e-code headlights. Better light output than factory US headlamps.
So I figured out why the headlamps were not aiming at the same level.. it's cuz the auto body shop replaced my left headlight with a new one without adjusting it. So I manually adjusted the light using the adjusting screws to match the right side.
I have Euro Golf R headlights on my Canadian GTI with xenon lights. The headlights were almost plug and play except for some coding for the LED turn signal. But, the highbeams don't work.
About 3 weeks ago, my right headlight (HID with AFS swivel motors) goes out and I get the message in the MFD - \"AFS Inoperative\" followed by \"Lower Right Dipped Beam out\" (or something to that effect).
The vanagon square lights are awful.
