[Mk2] [NA] Blue box/relay ID

Post by LeeT »

hi guys, can someone tell me what the blue box behind the passenger side headlight is? It says retractor or something similar on it. I'm assuming it is for controlling the pop up headlights but wouldn't mind some confirmation
thanks ...lee

Hi Lee,

Yep, pull one of the wires out from the underneath to do the conversion so the headlights don't stay up when you flash someone.

Probably in the How to
