Ok, so I played around with these a little Sunday. I'm not sure I want to mess with that much modification. It does look like you could leave the large stock boot in place, just not the little one. They are not any deeper than the stock bulb, but they are bigger in diameter. The hold down will need modified, and all the extra stuff would need placed and tied up. I also don't know if you left the stock large boot on, if they would be able to cool. The nice part is, my wife's VW also has H7's, so I will try them there and see if it's a little less dramatic. I may play around with them a little more, we shall see.
