HEADLIGHTSDEPOT Chrome Housing Halogen Headlights Compatible with Volkswagen Beetle 1998-2005 Includes Left Driver and Right Passenger Side Headlamps

A quality product and a fantastic value! am a 51 year old female but I was able to install both headlight assemblies in less than 20 minutes. One click and old headlight assemblies came out. These replacements slid right in, a perfect fit. I just clicked to lock them in. They worked great. My car looks so much better with these new shiny headlight frames and crystal clear glass. I recommend them for anyone wanting to change a headlight assembly The price was fantastic. The pair was over $300 less than the $500 Volkswagen wanted for them.

In my 2004 Beetle there was kind of a slide bar which you pull to remove the existing headlights which my big Chlitons book mentioned. Other than that, no real surprises. Rubber surround seemed to match the curves of my fenders pretty well. Glad I purchased these.

Fits great bulbs are nice and bright. Had to take apart and snap a ball socket together to get adjustments working.

Dressed up the car and made it safe again

I installed these headlights in my Beetle with no problem except that my car is old and had issues with the mounting mechanisms but once I got around that I was quite pleased with the lights. The only reason for 4 stars and not 5 was because of a rubber vent tube on the bottom. The original tube was slim but these came with a large tube that caught on the rim of the opening and wouldn’t allow insertion of the light. I just removed these tubes.

They were great

These are decent headlights, but you get what you pay for. They're clear and bright and look nice. However, the fit on my '98 TDI bug was only OK. They do fit, but it's hard to get the seals to sit properly and they don't quite fit tight all the way around. Adjusting these things takes a little patience and is rather finicky. It seems kind of "sticky" where you'll be turning the screw and it doesn't seem to be doing anything then the light will suddenly jump. Also, the low beams don't seem to adjust very well (they do, but it's not nearly as obvious as the highs). The alignment of the low/hi beams leaves something to be desired as well. For one, they are offset horizontally from each other. The driver side one was almost aligned, but the passenger side one had the hi beam pointing way off to the left in comparison to the low. As one other reviewer pointed out, they are also way to far apart vertically. Adjusting for the low beams has the highs pointed at the tree tops and vice versa. Overall, they're ok if you're on a budget, but don't expect too much.

They work great passenger side was little difficult but they are nice and bring first 3 pictures is the new ones the last one was the factory ones
