I'd just like to intro myself as a new forumite, Having just ordered my first T5 (LWB 130 OFF ROAD GREY). Carpenter for money, windsurfing to spend it on.The first upgrade will be wheels and then headlights ,What is the best (legal) option, from reading on this forum it seems HID's are a bit of a grey area, are caravelle units worth the cost? |

You can get non genuine caravelle lights.Brickwerks can do these I think.

Would that be the same wood butcher as on the flooring forum?

Hello the velle lights are okay, I changed to velle lights and I run phillips vision plus bulbs so they are pretty good I guess out of 10 the would be a 7.5 IMHO

Jumped Ship to a Vito but I hear a 2021 T6 calling, only real difference is the Vito cab is more car like.

Flooring mostly Vans as well sometimes - trying to educate them in the ways of VW but they like their transits and mazdas. |

Welcome Woody, sounds like you've got a beauty arriving soon...but remember to be speed-careful round Northampton if it's not a Kombi!
