I like the 5 better. the 3 looks like max power add on. Should only be on RST imo.

spots are more functionality than styling (although i have grown to like them) - mk3 headlights + country lanes + high speed =

looks like i sticking with the 3 slat then , or to be different i might go for the 5 , oh i give up
