Alreet,

Looking for some advice as to how to get rid of the orange in my from indicators. Got some chromed ones from E-bay but when I went to fit them this afternoon I saw that the original bulb is in fact colourless and that there is an orange screen the bulb sits in :confused: . Any ideas guys?
BTW its a 99 GTI.

Cheers
 
assuming you mean the front indicators not repeaters, you would need to "de-globe" them. There is a write-up in the how to's section but you wont be able to view it as your not a member (£15 to join and get full access) Basically you can either heat the unit up in an oven, then seperate them and remove the orange part or some people just smash them out from, i guess.. where the bulb goes in.
 
As above, there are a few different ways of doing it, smash it, cook it or boil it. All have been attempted by people on here with varying results. All can be found if you do a search on de-globing or something similar but as br3n said, you may be unable to view it if it is not in the general section due to your privilages.
