i have a phase 2 and was wondering if putting phase 3 crystals on it is as simple as take the old ones out and plugs the crystals in ??

Should be! I think there is a twinoptics issue. IIRC and somebody correct me if i am wrong... in P2 headlights when high comes on the dim goes off? In P3 i think that both stay on. Anyway itll still work but it will just mean that you dont have the dipped beams on at the same time as the high beam.

To get around this you just have to swap over the stalk on the steering wheel for a P3 one! Either way they will work and yes it is just a straight swap!Easy!

Basically yeh just put on the crystals and if they dont work as expected then you know what the problem is!

EDIT: Or the one lamp being on at a time might be a P1 thing :/

I know the s16 and ph1 gti have twin optics so need the stalk not sure about ph2/3

As above, the ph2 lights have a single H4 bulb and the ph3 crystals have twin H7 bulbs, sams spot on that you need to change the stalk and with everything else said in the above just to confirm it

^^ Yes after two years I know something about 306s! Get in!

Just thought, something else to add, you would also need to swap the level adjusters across from the ph2 lights as IIRC the plug is different

This ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

also fitted p3s in all 4 of my p2s and only swaped the level adjuster not the stalks

Yeah ph 2 and 3 level adjusters are different, I followed a thread on pugnet for the best tactic and yeah change the stalk for a twin optic one for both bulbs to work properly - about 2 hrs for light/adjuster and stalk swap
