Reviews of HELIX headlights

For what its worth, I had the Helix headlights on my 2017 GSW and yes, I had to set those up with HID ballasts and HID bulbs. I was able to tuck the ballast inside the back of the headlight and put the bulb access door/cover back on for a pretty clean install.

Just installed them, will have to see how they work out.

Finally got my hands on some Helix headlights after months of waiting. I couldn't be happier with the results!

I bought [these headlights](https://www.ecstuning.com/b-helix-parts/mk75-style-headlight-set-black-trim/hvwg7hl-75b2~hlx/) with [this LED kit](https://www.ecstuning.com/b-morimoto-parts/d2h-d2s-2-stroke-led-bulb-kit/led1509kt/). So far so great. They look amazing, the LED upgrade is literally night and day. Fitment is good, no issues, and they shipped pretty fast.

I just got burned on the terrible quality of Helix halogen projector headlights, and put the stock reflector headlights back on. Yes, the Helix projector lights were that bad.

Just wanted to follow up for anyone else thinking about running the same headlights that I found a working solution. To reiterate what MarcoCap24 stated, the Helix LED R Style for the Mk6 Jetta ( https://www.urotuning.com/Helix-Projector-Headlights-LED-R-Style-Mk6-Jetta-p/hvwj6hl-l7.htm ) LED UU's will light up as intended with a euroswitch.

Just finished the install and I have noticed 2 things on this Helix unit. 1. When the low-beams are in use they seem to run at a lower power. 2. When turning on the high-beams it also makes the low-beams run at their apparent normal full power.

I'm having the same exact same issue. Got mine thursday install Friday and they work fine with no errors. Now Sunday DRLs flicker on startup and only now work when the headlights are turned on. And also... condensation. It's not your install it is the cheap Chinese lights not working correctly.

I have the helix MK7 reps with a generic HID bi-xenon set up. Works just fine. Like other said just make sure its a can bus system.

I bought and installed them many years ago while I was living in Germany. The lights are in excellent condition with no damage, but the lenses are cloudy from years of use. They have never been sanded, so a 3M kit could be used to clean them up. The auto leveling functioned properly.
