How did you take such a good picture with the sunset in the back?! I just tried to do the same thing and it came out like shit, hahah. And I'm very jealous of your headlights.

dunno just pointed my iphone and took it..... tried to do head on but the LEDs overpowered the pic...

everyone around here thats not into vw's think the headlights are aftermarket....:iono:

I'm even more impressed that it was with an iPhone!

I can kind of understand people thinking they're aftermarket, because they're probably more used to seeing ugly halogens like I have.

Love it. The Autobahn Package just looks great in CW.

rear wiper delete done.

Which plug did you use? pics?
