Also available from Coolair, including a complete conversion bundle with brackets and grille (badged or unbadged).

Intriguingly, the Coolair pics show a different unit to the CVC ones. It seems unlikely that two versions are being produced simultaneously, so has one of them used the wrong pics? If so, which is correct? (To me, the Coolair ones look more likely to be what you'll actually receive).

The CVC ad says "Please note that the headlight image is for illustrative purposes only." so i guess its a stock picture..

Looking at the cool air pictures I am now sceptical that the beam pattern would be the same as vw intended given there are no sloped sections On the lens that I can see . Would these lights lack the “kick up” to near side?

Morning, both sets of images from ourselves and CA are illustrative, although our images represent the fact the units will be E-stamped the same as factory EU units rather than the US units.
