Default City Lights

Please forgive my ignorance but can some please post pics of the HID lights with and without the "city lights" VAG hack.

Thanks

Default Already posted pics a few posts down

Not the VAG hack but I removed the city light bulbs. IMO, it kind of looks like an Acura TL or TSX now at night.

Why would you turn off city lights? IMHO they look good and I got ecodes to prove it.

Default IMO, I like the clean look of no extra light source in the headlamp housing

Just the HID projector lamp and that's it.
But that's just me.

Default There is no "Without the city lights" vag hack

The hack is to recode to settings found in the cars in the Rest Of the World (ROW Setting). Basically turns off the orange parking lights and enables you to use your fogs on low and high beam.

the City lights stay the same as usual.

Default I agree, I'm going to garage right now to pull them out, city lights with fogs on would look good...

but no mod for that yet or probably ever.

I guess your equivalent of city lights are same as our UK sidelights?

Can you tell me the trick for getting them out - I've swapped the main and dipped H7's but can't get the OEM W5W city lights out to change them. I can feel the mount above the headlight bulb - but it does not pull out?
