H4 To H7 Upgrade

[CAB]

Bit confusing, but here is an aftermarket set:

2019 VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER T6 O/S Drivers Right Front Headlight Headlamp | eBay

For Sale is a right headlight, removed from a 2019 VOLKSWAGEN TRANSPORTER 5 Door Van. <br> <br> <p><b>All headlights come with a 12 month mechanical breakdown warranty.</b></p>.

www.ebay.co.uk

They look like THQ v1 or v2 or similar style, which I think are twin H7. But the title misleadingly says only the RHS!

Anyway, caveat emptor

LHS here, some scratching??

Volkswagen Transporter Passenger Side Front Headlight 2017 Model | eBay

Volkswagen Transporter Passenger Side Front Headlight 2017 Model. Condition is Used. Collection in person only. All damage is shown in the pictures. Was hard to picture as the damage is surface scratches, which can be seen, as well as markings that can be polished off. Message me if you have any...

Edit: cheap, but collection only, Stanmore.

1005 and 1006 for left and right side. The letter will designate the age. A oldest, B second oldest etc.....the early one will have the older drl bulb holder which is prone to burning out

This helps a lot!!

So these are the oldest and will most likely need DRL fitting replacement?

Total costs:
- They go for 80 euro's a piece, might get a better deal if bought together. = €160,-

Left + right OSRAM night breaker h7 LED Gen2 = 2x €99,95 = 200,- ? Or just 2 in total?


Any additional things? Adapters needed?
Not sure where i can get the DRL fix done, sounds like the dealer knows his price.


Are there units which dont require the DRL fix?

Thanks

It's not necessarily needed to replace the Drl holders, if they're not burnt out. I had older models and they were fine.

I'm not sure when the Drl fix version came out, probably C od D designate I should think. You can test fit before putting the bumper back on to make sure everything works fine.

There's a long thread on DRL holders, if you are confident to wire them in it is apparently straightforward, I'm not so I found a new replacement unit.

Yeah they are mega easy to wire. I've got two sets as I bought prefix A, which I had to repair so they're staying in the van. Then I bought a set of prefix E but realised they've still got the older style DRL holders, they'll be up for sale soon.

It's an alphabet lottery !!

I might be interested, depending on the price and if you would be able to ship to the Netherlands. Ill send you a PM

There is difference between LHD and RHD lights I believe, if your driving a Euro van
