Warranty ran out on the van last month, so I was finally able to install these, having had them sat in my office for two months. Van also went for its first MOT the week after, so they are checked and fine. No adjustments needed and a piece of cake to install. Maybe 90 minutes on the drive, with a little help from a mate. Hardest part of the job was getting to the trim fitting in the wheel arch. No warning lights, no issues. Very happy with the new look and being able to (safely) drive more than 50mph at night now....
 
I want the thq lights for my van but again they are out of stock.
How bad would a warranty argument be if you had changed the lights? Against what sort of issues, compared with having decent light output in the dark!
Good to hear there are no problems tho.
 
I don't know, but wasn't prepared to take the risk of invalidating it. I've been there before and had claims dismissed that had nothing to do with mods performed.

Highly recommend the lights if you can get hold of them.
 
Has anyone had these THQ lights apart?

I'm weighing up options of how to get the best light output for sensible money and am considering swapping out the projectors for bi-xenon ones, fitting a HID kit and LEDs in the main beam chambers for flashing duties. That way I'll get a HID main beam without the warm up delay and a fast responding, white flasher for when the lights are turned off. From what I can gather, aftermarket bi-xenon projectors are fixed through the bulb hole on regular reflector lights, so I'm wondering if it would be a relatively straightforward swap.
 
I don't want to open that can of worms, so forget I said I want to fit a HID kit into them. ;)

Why xenon at all? If you want to go "value for money" way, I would consider installing original VW T6 LED units

@Morzze has done already something similar.

That all looks pretty involved. Unless someone can tell me how THQ supplied headlights come apart, I shall be fitting bi-xenon projectors into my H7s. Something needs to be done as they are dire. Something along the lines of these

Sie haben meine Beschreibung nicht verstanden, ich habe die Halogenscheinwerfer nicht verändert oder zerbrochen, ich habe die originalen FULL LED T6 Scheinwerfer GESTARTET. Ich habe ein Video gemacht und bin bereit zu erklären, wenn Sie Fragen haben. SCHEINWERFER werden vollständig von Einheiten gesteuert, die ich erfunden und mit meinen eigenen Händen hergestellt habe. Das Video zeigt die Geschwindigkeit der Leuchtweitenregulierung. Wenn es sich um einen Halogenmotor handelt, beträgt die Korrekturgeschwindigkeit ca. 5 Sekunden. 0-1-2-3, FULL LED-Motoren 1 Sekunde für alle 4 Positionen.

You did not understand my description, I did not change or break the halogen headlamps, I STARTED the original FULL LED T6 headlamps. I have made a video and am ready to explain if you have any questions. HEADLIGHTS are completely controlled by units that I invented and made with my own hands. The video shows the speed of headlamp leveling. If it is a halogen motor, the correction speed is about 5 seconds. 0-1-2-3, FULL LED motors 1 second for all 4 positions.
