    Hello, my headlights on my 1981 golf gti are quite dim, & even on full beam they don't seem to get any brighter :(

    Something like this (but for a mk1) would help, for sure. The electricity has such a long way to travel in the original loom, these uprated ones just take it straight from the battery.

    Sorry I'm new to this site, I thought I'd posted on electrical : \
    I've checked the site out & if I'm completely honest I'm a bodywork man, so will a normal garage be able to do this or would I have to go to a specialist electrical place?
