Hi Mike,

That looks a distinct possibility !! I'll try EBay for some.

Well done Mike, it just shows the power of a forum!!

Good luck Baz.

Try and avoid cutting the shell though. You will regret it later.

Sorry Bizbaz, there is only us here on this forum, to solve the problems, the owners club is non technical!

I would be very interested to see your solution, before I start. But we are all here to help!

Sorry,I have been a bit late in seeing this post,but when I had my mk3 I manged to fit VW polo mk1 [or 2? the square boxy one] round lights,but had to shave down the metal holder to suit.From memory it worked very well,you just have to keep trying the metal surround in and taking off a bit more with the grinder.The units were 7'' and kept the looks standard.Its better than not having the car on the road and they were quite cheap at the scrappy. Hope this helps,Stan.

Nice one Stan, perfect ;) It looks like mk2 Polo are better suited than mk1 lights.

Or how about some modern looking MK1 Golf lights
