2018 kombi high line
My father owned it from new and supplied by Swiss vans. never had any damage or anyone touch lights apart from new h4 bulbs.
When I put the reg in for headlight bulbs it comes up as h7 fitment.
When stood at front of van looking at passenger. Bulb far left is drl that...
I didn't get any adapter, because I used VCDS to change coding from H4 to H7.
If you have H4headlights and don't have an opportunity to code the central electrics module with VCDS/OBDEleven/Carista etc., you'll need the H4 adapter.
Just finished installing full LED headlights to T6 and here are some pictures. I bought the lights from Germany (lichter-profi), but lights are from China considering the markings. The lights were almost plug&play, all I had to do is change the central electrics coding from H4 to H7...
Many projectors are mounted through the H4 bulb hole, so the reflector remains in place and the levelling adjustment works as it does now.
Having fitted projectors in a few other headlight, I did attempt to do the same with Transporter ones, but for the like of me I couldn't get them appart.
After a lot of faf i managed to get a pair of headlights split. I've split many many sets of headlights over the years and these have been the hardest to do, and the biggest.
The reason... i wanted to change the chrome stripe on my T6 grill for a red stripe, pretty cool, adds 12 bhp and makes...
...was replaced at 50k miles. Rear shocks are corroded on outer tubes but are fine mechanically. Fronts fine. Springs included with both.
H4Headlights were replaced around the same time. Fitted with LED sidelight bulbs.
Tail lights are tailgate fitting - won't fit a barn door. Bright LED bulb...
...better luck on Ebay - most people on the forum replace them.
On paper they would cost quite a lot to buy new however reality is few people want them. I got £80 for mine in silver (so no trims) for all 4.
Ditto H4headlights £180-£200 each new and lots are given away free on the forum.
GLWTS.
Be careful what you buy, those Stealth lights are auxiliary lights and you can't use them to supplement a dipped beam, which is where the standard H4 lights are most lacking.
I'd go with Transporter HQ lights, which many of us have.
Most of the comments will be about the standard T6 headlights which are H4 rather than H7, and downright dangerous.
For once, VW seemed to have taken note when designing the T6.1 !!
Headlights - You probably have H4. Best value for money upgrade is a pair of H7 Headlights (often pop up on ebay and theres a dedicated thread on this forum if you have a search)
Rock n Roll bed rattle - They will probably all rattle in different places so its down to you to do some...
Welcome to the forum.
Not sure on the EGR picture, they all smell on Regen so don't think that has any bearing on it.
Any dash lights? If not then I would say all is good.
Hi all, newbie here. Having spent the last few weeks since picking up my van trawling the forum (much to my wife’s dismay) it’s great to see so much knowledge and advice being shared. So far you’ve made me buy:
- 235/65/17 wild peaks on the devonport wheels
- h7 caravelle lights upgrade from...
Hi,
anyone have a set of original headlights that they're tripping over and want rid of? I'm looking to try the experiment of heating them up to remove the lenses before I get about taking my current ones out.
It might be a disaster so not really looking to pay much. Lenses must be...
On the original Carista you have to do it through the beta version, not sure if the Evo has that option. Have a look on the Carista website for info about the beta version.
Hi, I have fitted THQ headlights to replace the OEM H4 halogens on my T6 and I purchased a Carista Evo so I could adjust the ECU so dip beam stays on with high beam. The Carista works fine and I had fun changing various settings, but I can't see how to adjust this feature. I have looked under...
T6 headlights with the passenger side having missing top lugs and some scatching to the main lens. No idea if road legal but they have passed an MOT in the past.
Maybe useful to someone
I'm based in Peterborough but do travel around from time to time but will end up dumping if they don't go soon.
I’m in the same boat, really need to upgrade the headlights. Just fitted some better H4 bulbs to go on with for now ( Phillips race bulbs). Not tried in the dark yet but not expecting massive improvement.
I may wait for the THQ led’s to become available to buy. Does anyone know if these new...
Don't make me wheel out my H4headlights with led bulbs video again... what's that... somebody hasn't seen it?
Give me a few minutes it's in here somewhere...
