Capri green clipper

My new daily.

So far, very tidy Webber carb clipper, electric roof.

Some gentle mods coming.

So far, new radio, converted from big spline to small spline and got my Wolfsburg wheel on.

Just upgraded the lights. Led headlamps -fully road legal and bright as flip. Happy days.

The girls have named it Gilmore.

Looks very tidy and good to see another Golf used as a daily.
Where did you get the headlights from?

1988 Mk1 Golf GTi Cabriolet 1.8cc DX, K-jet. Daily drive. 317,000 miles and counting
1978 Mk1 Scirocco GLS 1.6cc FR, Webber carb. Weekend toy.

Looks nice and clean that one. Are those the H4 led bulbs I've seen around? Wondered about those myself.

Compulsive buyer of knackered VWs!!!

Thanks, very happy with her.

The lights are JW Speaker LED headlamps. H7 fitment. They needed a fitting ring which I modified.

Sadly, not cheap - £200 per side. But I had previously bought some for another project. (Very popular with Land Rover Defender scene).

You can get cheaper E-marked lights too.
