VR6 0 Posted December 19, 2003 No prob. Not entirely sure as I bought mine off H100VW via ebay. I would assume that he sells them for around £50. Worth it though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gemcka 0 Posted January 1, 2011 Hi All, I'm new on here and new to the corrado! But I have an issue with the lights :confused4: I have a G reg 1.8 16v and the other day the main beam was very dim! The dip beam was normal, the Flash beam worked OK too. I'll try to explain..... on dip beam everything is normal, when you pull the stalk towards you to turn on the main beam both the main beam lights come on but look dim and the blue light on the dash looks dim too. When you pull the stalk to flash main beam, the lights return to normal brightness, and the blue light on the dash gets brighter too... but dimms again when you release the flash. I've checked all the fuses I can find, bulbs are OK & swapped the relays with some others I have to no effect. does any one have any ideas?? or have a wiring diagram? I found a similar post here viewtopic.php?f=2&t=6131&p=59088&hilit=dim+main+beam#p59088 but the link doesnt work.. Many Thanks for any help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gemcka 0 Posted January 4, 2011 Hi VR6, Do you know what was on the original link you posted? Or what I need to get from E-bay? Cheers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enkoder 0 Posted January 4, 2011 what was the outcome to this as i have the same problem, my lights are so poor (this winter) i'd be better off driving with my head out the window shining a torch like ace ventura Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
duckdown_hoodrat 0 Posted January 4, 2011 common problem due to something to do with the headlight loom (i believe) You can buy an uprated loom, or HID's maybe? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
