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!
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! ✌🏻
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 !
This is the best car channel on KZread, and I say this mostly because every other car channel on KZread 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 👍
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...
Go thru the drivers side wheel well for better access to headlight bulbs 3 screws versus the 6 fasteners for the intake
I can’t believe i JUST found this video. thank you Cameron. MUCH NEEDED MOD!!!
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

Can you do a video on how reliable it is? I’m looking at getting one
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.
This was so helpful. Thanks
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.
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...
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.
Wonder if they work on the GLI and if the heat from them will melt the rubber seal
They look great. Do you get any error messages
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
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.
Invite accepted! I wanted to do a DIY paintjob and realized my compressor sucks... Interested to see the results of the full send!
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 always wanted a GTI and this series made that proposition a lot less scary.
Between your guy with the burner and you kickin the tire toward his face my sphincter tightened up waiten for something bad to happen 🤣
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! 👍

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.
Hey I'll buy a Jet Tag... If I can get hooked up with the rims on your GTI... I have a 2015 Golf R... Really enjoy your videos and those rims 🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
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

Another dope video!
did you have to clear any headlight warning codes? I changed my tag light bulbs to LED and it threw an error code.
Does anyone know if you need bulb retainers for the led to work?
did u check all the websites? some do have them available
Can you please show how you installed the main h7 bulb.

How did you get the drl’s to work without throwing a canbus error?
I have a 2016 e-golf. I was told that changing the high beams will cause a dash error. Is this true?
How do i change on the mark 7 golf highline from xenons to leds? Xenon just do not last.
so are H7 bulbs used for headlights and h15 are used for daytime running lights?
The Amazon link in the description says doesn’t fit 2015-2017 golf gti. What year is yours?
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.
Nice - DRLs look much better but what happens to Brights/High-Beam?
Where did you order the LEDs, I couldn't find them in your RSA I had yo settle for the HID
Are these LED headlight bulbs Hi AND Low beam? Or did you lose the Hi beams?
that would be sick if can you do gli jet tags too.
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.

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.

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.

Mine takes h9 for day time running lights. They where cheaper than the other set so a win win I guess?

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.

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.

@@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.

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.
Headlights are available again for the Mk7.5!
Would be interesting to see a volvo t5 xD
should still do mk7,5 front and rear lights
How about an off road build?
