help guys with my Bug Headlights
HI All,
was nice meeting you all on Sat for the monthly meet, As you propably know my headlights on my Bug let my car down a little. Could anyone tell me if these would be a straight fit? or would i need to do modifications on my wiring?
Any help would be much appricated.

Sky's the limit with some of the cheap Chinese stuff out there. Personally I'd avoid it. Try and find a set of genuine STI lamps. Then you know they will fit properly, have the correct beam patern and look better.

Hi Frayz,
thanks for this, Do you know if the STI lamps will just fit in the WRX? What lamps do you have on yours?

My car is an STI and retains the oem lamps. As far as I'm aware they're a direct fit to the WRX loom.

wiring is different. best to get a few inches of loom snipped where you buy headlights
