I'm aiming at taking my front bumper off this weekend so i can remove my headlights and sort the lamp holders out. But i was considering removing the LED's. I was just wondering what other people thought? Remove or not to remove, that is the question!!?

They certainly do look very good from the photo. If they look as good as that I want one myself. Don't know why you want to get rid?

I'd be tempted to try them on the top rather than the bottom, just to see, but I reckon the only reason it works on yours is because its black. I'm not so sure it would work on my silver one...
Look good.

If you can control them independantly from the head/side lights then def keep them, I really like them look really good on the mk2.

Edit: In fact Im not keen on them at all should definatly loose them I will swap them for mine if you want some standard ones :laugh:

I like them, look almost factory fit.
When I 1st saw Audis with them I couldn't believe it, but some of them do look like tacky after thought. Live about 2 miles from Bentley so every other car is an Audi round here.

Are they fitted outside the light unit or inside?

If outside, I'd change that but they look preety cool and I love the fitment position, very Audi-ish!

Keep them as it suits it well and is discreet when fitted.

They're outside the actual light unit. Basically siliconed to the bottom!

Thinking about it now the MK1 needs H7R bulbs as they are shorter and the H7s are too long to fit the MK1 headlights. Ive got 50W 6000k which have a very slight blub tint but are very bright.

They dont seem to dazzle others as never once been flashed.
