headlights on an MK1

Post by Hendrik_dejager »

Hey all

so im not sure if anyone has seen or heard of this. but you get super cool aftermarket 7" headlights that are made for Jeeps and Harleys. now ive seen it once where someone kind of retrofitted these to a citi in some way. I am also looking into doing this as I really like those lights. but what I want to know is, how hard isit to do? if it can be done by a person with limited engineering skill(myself). I haven't found any build thread on the internet either.

thanks in advance

lights look like these:
