Reviews of Hella parts For Business

I just came across new headlights made by Hella which are look alike VW MK5 versions and installed one to test the beam pattern on my GTI337. It appears that VW MK5 versions are newer one and due to that fact are engineered to put more light on the road. There is no visible cut out in a beam pattern like on OEM versions, but the MK5 look alike seem to be winning on my check list.

There are no alternatives. It\u2019s OEM Hella or Chinese crap. There are no options in the middle. There used to be DJ Autos but have been long discontinued.\n\nGet a set of Hellas. Restore them. It\u2019s the best option and you\u2019ll have great headlights for life

The pair from Hella was cheaper, and works like a dream.

I got a Hella 100amp from LRDirect ($270 shipped UK->USA) and did the same extra charging cable mod. Very happy with it.

significantly better than the Sylvania OE ones for light output, but with an OE style cutoff so you don’t blind other drivers.

i have the hellas; im extremely satisfied with their quality and output

I swapped the Hella conversions in on my '87 16V last year. These part numbers worked just fine: Low beams x2 Hella 003177862 HLMP MOD 164X103 H4 High beams HELLA 003177821 164x103mm H1 High Beam Halogen Conversion Headlamp Kit

Normal. Some time around spring ‘23 they took many cost saving measures. Right around time they went from two 12V batteries to one. Prior production had two 300 Hz Hella horns.

this is not normal and happens only on modern made Hella headlights which are garbage. You will also experience extreme fading of the lens in a few years and a circle burned in from the projector shine. I've also heard about the inner black piece fading but can't say for sure because I haven't seen it myself (the other issues - I have) The quality has dropped insanely since the cars production era.

I bought new hella lamps and mounted them nearly half year ago. Any ideas why they are getting so steamy ? any fix? Im so dissapointed, this shit is pretty expensive
