Hi all,
I'm new to this site so excuse my lack of knowledge and you may of already answered this - I did try to search....
So, I've recently bought a mrk3 1.4, it's got the angel eye headlights but they're really weak, even with the rings and the mainlights on it's so weak you can't tell you've got lights on when driving at all!!!... also I noticed when I flick the full beams nothing happens.
Now I'm assuming that it's been badly wired, so I'll take a look tonight, which may fix the full beam issue.. but I can't see this making the headlights brighter.. I've already got to halfords and got 'super bright' bulb, which proved to be a no win.
I've spoken to a mate and he mentioned weak headlights can be a common problem on mk3's.. and often a new wiring loom is needed.. has anyone else come across this problem?
Thanks guys, looking forward to your responses!!!
Aidan
