I'm night blind and my 2025 BE headlights are fantastic. I'm not sure if I'm half retarded, but it almost seems like the Matrix is activated from the factory. My menu has "dynamic lights" able to be activated, and they work great.

Pros: headlights are fantastic

My dad has had the OE European (glass) headlights on his Mk4 Golf since 2002. They still look great all these years later, despite 300,000+ miles on them. The European beam pattern is so much better than the U.S. one, too.

Pros: look great, better beam
Mileage: 482803 km

  • Condensation:
Rating 3.5

My 2024 does this when the weather fluctuates, it clears up after a bit once the weather stabilizes or the mid morning sun hits it. I was also told it's normal to an extent, fog or light condensation will clear up. Was told to let them know if it looks like water is running down inside, streaking, doesn't clear up, puddles, or if the whole thing fogs up, then the overall seal has failed or is faulty.

Pros: condensation clears up
Cons: condensation occurs

The halogen headlights are not good at all. The visibility on low beam is poor and I almost have to rely on high beam. I am planning to upgrade but would like to know what others recommend.

Cons: poor low beam visibility
Vehicle: Volkswagen

The default setting for the headlights were adjusted as high as they went. Annoyingly you couldn't change it whilst driving, you had to root around in the infotainment.

Cons: default setting too high, difficult to adjust
Vehicle: Volkswagen
