I got the xenon interior bulbs from www.eurosporttuning.com and I really
them. I gave my buddy the left over bulbs so he could add a touch of klass to his Focus. Apparently Eurosport Tuning also carries LED bulbs but they're like $95.

Obviously I don't live in UT, but as far as I know, as long as your state doesn't require front plates you can run whatever you want up there. For example, I used to live in PA (where front plates aren't required) and there's people all over the place up there with random front plates: Novelty, Euro plates, advertising, etc.

Now if your state DOES require front plates, thats a little different. Here in VA your front plate has to be the state-issued plate. That said, I HAVE seen guys around here with Euro plates, some of them run the Euro plate in the middle of the bumper and the state plate down and to one side, other guys put the state plate on the dashboard facing out the windshield (though I'm pretty sure both of those things are still illegal)

Now I don't know if I should spend the $42 and buy them from German Plates or spend $55 and buy them from eurosporttuning.com because they claim to be the original and not a knock off. How do I decide?!

I didn't even know that German Plates had them. I don't shop around, I just buy. I'll have you know that the bulb in between the map lights will be a little dimmer. I don't know why that is, but it is. Other than that it looks really classy.

I never got the appeal of FI on a beetle... Sleeper status I guess.

I will give props to the domo sticker tho.
