If I'm reading you right, no. TSi is a Golf engine model - completely different to GTi in spec and performance, like the GTi is different to the 'R'. I guess it's not available in the US, but for the English folk....

no bro, yer actually not reading me right... i asked "is the UK TSi the US Golf?" not "is the UK TSi the US GTI?"...

from VW.CO.UK it looks like that'd be an S or SE... with the smaller 1.4L engine, and which is under the Golf heading...

if someone wants to verify the bulb info and let me know, i'll note it as such...

thanks!

Haha! So I was right in my answer, but didn't explain it to well!:D:D:D. Think I missed the word 'say' just before the GTi bit, would have made a whole of difference. The fog bulb is defo HB4 in there anyway.

Help replacing fog lamps

I replaced the H7 low beam bulbs, piece of cake, but can't seem to get the fog lamp bulbs to budget and am afraid of breaking them... anyone done it, can someone tell me how it's done? The manual is useless.

Front turn signals in the halogen capsules are 5202 amber. FYI, the exact same assembly with clear bulb can be purchased at your local Chevy dealer, as it is the same as the foglight in the 2010 Camaro.

Anyone know what the front turn signal bulb size is for the HID headlights?

Without taking apart the front housing (which is what you would have to do) the bulbs seem to look like a 906 style. Can anyone confirm/deny this?
