This is the best car channel on RUclips, and I say this mostly because every other car channel on RUclips is the same. They're loud, too obnoxious and cocky, they love to clickbait, and they're too desperate to grab the viewers attention. You're different because you always keep it real, your attitude is always calm, videos are always chill and very high quality, and the fact that you're straightforward and to the point. Keep up the great content 👍
bought these bulbs for my mk7 because i watched this video. definitely one of the best purchases i made for this car. changes the look of the car entirely. definitely worth it. You deserve many more subscribers and viewers for your helpful reviews and installations
Love this channel dude. I’m so happy you did the gti series. I own one myself and you definitely taught me a lot. Thank you sir! I’m looking into the bulbs now!
You can access the bulb also through the fog light access hole in wheel well. I saw a video for amber drls/high beams. These are halogens but brighter, and the drls look really cool and amber stands out more for safety.
Hey Cam. Thank you for all the content and all you do to entertain and educate us. Carmaspeed is one of a kind and I hope for bigger things for you and the business in the future! Keep up the amazing work! ✌🏻
Hi 👋 I’ve been driving a mk7 gti for 3 years now. And I love it. But i had headlight go out. I would like to do what you did in this video but the link in description for the lights isn’t working.
Igot the Philips & Osram White Vision halogens (similar to led) for soo much cheaper than leds. And also without the problems of converters... Looks bout the same to! 👍
I just installed the Osrams in new headlamp units (the originals have weird micro-cracks in the lens). They are nowhere near as bright as the LEDs. I am getting the LEDs
I bought the led bulbs that you linked and when I put the low beams in they work all the time but when I put the running time leds in they work on high beam and then I go to low beam the running lights start to flicker
I bought led for my golf but I don't know where the led cable is supposed to connect to in my car. I just don't see anywhere near the headlight housing. Are you able to help
I think the headlights are designed to pop out to be worked on, on my VW (Polo) its just two top screws then pull forward and out they come. Much easier than fiddling in the engine bay.
I installed the same LED'S but had issues with the driver side DRL, it kept flickering. luckily i was able to fix the issue via VCDS. so if you have the same problem, you need to change the Lasttyp settings on the DRLs. see below. Leuchte5 TFL RB32-Lasttyp 5 and Leuchte4TFL LB4-Lasttyp 4 > change from 9 - allgemeine Glühlampe 27W; auch H15 to 1 - LED Tagfahrlichtmodul Versorgung
Love your channel man after ordering the wrong dam lights twice I found this and orders them what a difference!! I'm ordering the day time running and prolly The high beams today ! I got a 2015 GTI def gonna be watching a lot of your videos to build mine !
Cool stuff but what about flicker and high beams with these leds? Idk about the gti but on my sportwagen those are the drl's and high beams, with the drl being dimmed.
I don't recommend the Focus RS. Too many reasons to fit into a youtube comment but if anyone cares, I'll try. Bought one out at San Tan Ford actually so yeah, I am a local, and it did fine in the heat with a stock intercooler, stock everything. I had it for a year and traded it for a Mustang GT after seeing your GT build. Having said that, if views are the goal, you'll probably get views on it.
Hi, I’m trying to change my side bulbs on my golf TSI mk7.5 but to get it out isn’t the same! It looks like a little box instead of the turn anti-clockwise opening… help
Is this safe to do knowing our halogen cars have housings made for halogens? I read this is a big douche move that can blind other drivers? Please correct me if I’m wrong just going off forums I debated doing this the day I drive my gti home, I hate the lights
You have to be really careful about the bulb you buy and how it is installed and adjusted. I did a huge amount of research when I got my LED headlights and ultimately decided that buying headlights designed for LEDs was a better option.
@@benhudson8905 that’s what I assumed I just cannot justify spending that much money on all new headlights for my gti, I’m assuming the bulbs in his video are safe otherwise he wouldn’t have used them?
@@tylermajeski2902 If you look at the light pattern against the garage you can see light projected up above the cutoff line. There are several lines of light and some dim patterns. These are glare. You can also see the glare when the camera is looking at the headlights. The whole reflector is lit up and you can see the glare around the edges of the headlight lens. This is why LEDs are bad in halogen housings. My LED projectors don't have light above the cutoff so they don't glare. While the ones he installed are better than a lot of the ones I have seen, the visible glare patterns on the garage would keep me from installing these LED bulbs in my personal car. He did adjust them, which many people don't, but he can't solve the glare issue because of the design of the reflector behind the bulb.
@@benhudson8905 so did you NOT get LEDs? Or did you just get all new headlight housings? I have halogen headlights in my GTI and would love LED headlights, but my initial research scared em away from going any further. FYI I’ve got a 2020 GTI with the DRL LED bar thing with those hideous contrasting halogen headlights next to them.
Depends on the year. I think these specific ones from LASFIT fit up to 2017 GTI S (halogen headlights). If you go on their amazon store you’ll find that the Pro-MB1 fits GTI 2018-2020.
You can get them on amazon! I just bought mine last week, took a couple days to arrive and had them installed. They’re amazing! If you want the link I can provide it for you
@@LegallyToast they’re actually really great! just like the helix headlights that are out of stock. here’s the link.. www.amazon.com/dp/B08229L929/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_D4HQ95RBCWQCX0BHJQ4E?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
@@Bruce74748 thanks! I’mma add them to the list of stuff to get ! I have a mk7 sportwagen 6at SEL , all interior lights are led.. everything else is halogen.. makes no sense 😂
Dude am I late for the LeDs ? I would love to own those. I used leds on my other car, ASTRA G people hit me with a bright I guess I only need to adjust them. I will do the same to Mk7 tsi
You’re lucky as in the UK it’s illegal to fit led bulbs to a reflector housing intended for halogen bulbs. I did the same to my 2019 Mk7.5 Golf it wouldn’t pass our UK MOT. Only option is to retro fit 2020 Golf R complete headlamps but these are a fortune
Yeah I done the same also fitted LED to these headlights on my golf but know they'll fail NCT here in Ireland. I do notice that at night people flash me thinking i got my fulls on because of the halogen housing. Have finally ordered Vland headlights coming Tuesday so will finally do it right
Can I use this LED's on my ED's headlights? I believe previous owner just put the old yellowish low beam bulbs to the ED's headlights. I would like to upgrade to LED but I don't know if the ED's housing has enough space for this LEDs.
I installed the same lights both drl’s and headlights but when I turn them on drl’s flash like turn signals. Does anyone know what the problem could be??
These non DOT approved led bulbs have a major problem with too much light thrown directly in front of the car, instead of down the road. When concrete pavement is wet, a tremendous glare is created by this close-up light patterns. In rear view mirrors at night the highway becomes a white sheet of LED bulb glare. It stinks.
This man is SO underrated, deserves MILLIONS of views!
Because he sold he 350z jk

Any engine lights or warnings come up ?
@@lachlanmcgee231 nope. Had the bulbs for about 6 months now no problems whatsoever
Hey, I've done light for the daytime, amazing, what's the size night lights that'll fit my mk7?
Are these still holding up?
You should also replace the turn signals! I’ve done that for my GLI and for the easy mod that it is, the results are worth it
How should I do that?
On the mirrors?
Man the more I watch your videos, the more I’m liking those wheels
Love this channel dude. I’m so happy you did the gti series. I own one myself and you definitely taught me a lot. Thank you sir! I’m looking into the bulbs now!
I always wanted a GTI and this series made that proposition a lot less scary.
I've been holding on to a set of EDS 7.5 lights since last June if you're interested. Still in box, never used.
Do you still have them?
@@beefchillingham6790 i do! Feel free to PM me if you’re interested in them.
What is the full beam like?
Hey Bmp tuning has their own mk7.5 headlights on stock
For double the price of the Helix. I'm waiting.
They look nice though.
I got the blacked out taillights from them, one of the best mods
@@Wayzor_ worth it. Helix gets water absorption inside, and the headlight covers peel.
@@JacesOwnWorld mine from ecs are a year old both are peeling now and I snapped one of the adjuster for aiming

Go thru the drivers side wheel well for better access to headlight bulbs
3 screws versus the 6 fasteners for the intake
One of the few gripes with my base model 16 S is the headlights. Didn't want to do an expensive conversion. This will do the trick! Thanks...
I can’t believe i JUST found this video. thank you Cameron. MUCH NEEDED MOD!!!

They really are but you have to take the entire front bumper off the MK7 GTI just to get to the headlight screws.
I installed the same LED'S but had issues with the driver side DRL, it kept flickering. luckily i was able to fix the issue via VCDS.
so if you have the same problem, you need to change the Lasttyp settings on the DRLs. see below.

I ran into the same problem! Thanks for this resolution.
Question, is your DRL and FULL BEAM the same bulb as I have a VW GOLF TDI MK7 an want to change the halogen to LED.
Love your channel man after ordering the wrong dam lights twice I found this and orders them what a difference!! I'm ordering the day time running and prolly The high beams today !
I got a 2015 GTI def gonna be watching a lot of your videos to build mine !
Just got mine I can believe this lights make a such huge difference
Could you possibly talk about the negatives to not having the performance pack? I heard without it you dont have the bigger breaks, LSD, etc...
Nice - DRLs look much better but what happens to Brights/High-Beam?
Hi mate looks great
Question??? I buyed headlights helix mk7 version 7.5 I would like to know if you bulbs kit can works ok for my car thanks
Are the DRL's also the high beam as well?
I'm looking at replacing them also but come up with the same bulb for both H15
Cool stuff but what about flicker and high beams with these leds? Idk about the gti but on my sportwagen those are the drl's and high beams, with the drl being dimmed.

Have a question, would like to confirm that these bulbs work on mk7.5. When I look it up it says that it will not fit my 2019 GTI.
Between your guy with the burner and you kickin the tire toward his face my sphincter tightened up waiten for something bad to happen 🤣
Wonder if they work on the GLI and if the heat from them will melt the rubber seal
Don't forget to add the euro switch as well 👍🏾
Can you do a video on how reliable it is? I’m looking at getting one

Headlights are available again for the Mk7.5!

How do i change on the mark 7 golf highline from xenons to leds? Xenon just do not last.
Where did you order the LEDs, I couldn't find them in your RSA I had yo settle for the HID
I want the red line and better looking DRLs more than I care about having LEDs
Are these LED headlight bulbs Hi AND Low beam? Or did you lose the Hi beams?
Can you please show how you installed the main h7 bulb.
Would this bulbs work for a 7.5 GTI S ( halogen headlights )
Depends on the year. I think these specific ones from LASFIT fit up to 2017 GTI S (halogen headlights).

So these fit mk7.5??? Amazon says they don’t fit a 2019
Did this throw any canbus warnings on the dash?
look for osram LEDHL109-BK LHD for 7.5
So are the daytime runners and the headlights the same bulb?
I need that GLI Jet Tag

so are H7 bulbs used for headlights and h15 are used for daytime running lights?

Mine takes h9 for day time running lights. They where cheaper than the other set so a win win I guess?
Do you any recommendations for dash camera?
YES GLI JET TAGS PLEASE
Pls
Did the car throw any codes?
I wonder if you got yellow day time running lights if it would look better?
will these fit in a 2015 gti??? if so im gonna buy then right now haha
This was so helpful. Thanks
Does anyone know if you need bulb retainers for the led to work?
Has anyone done hid bulbs on their mk7 gti. I have a mk7 gti but my leds are not that bright .
