If you are replacing H4's, they do need coding if you want dipped beam to stay on with main beam, unless you bought the additional wiring harness.
Technically they are correct in saying they will work without coding, but they will work better with the coding changed.

This is all new to me…. I’m keeping the H4 standard with just an upgraded Bulb but have the new H7 Led Bulbs from THQ for the dipped if that makes sense.
I think you are getting muddled up with bulb and headlight types.
If you want the headlights in the photo fitting to replace standard headlights, then for the benefit of someone willing to help you with the job, my previous post stands.

If you have no luck on this thread, then check out this other one where there’s a few suggestions for other auto-electrical work:
Leisure Battery Fitting in Yorkshire
Hi folks. We are about to purchase a new T6 LWB 199PS 4 motion van. We tow a caravan as well as using the van for work purposes (I’m an electrician). I intend to fit an Eberspacher night heater, work lights and other electrical equipment in the back. Can you recommend any auto electricians in...
Oh and welcome to the forum!
This is what they sent me I’m not Sure what the H4’s are that you mentioned in your first reply. I’m new to VW
… and your replacements are H7 - the headlamps are loosely referred to by their bulb code.
So what @dubber36 is pointing out is that, whilst they’re plug and play, if you want your dipped beam to remain on when main beam is turned on, then you’ll also need some coding done. It’s not imperative - and your new headlamps may even have some extra wiring to avoid this - but worth it for the short time it takes to code.
A quick search on aftermarket headlamps will tell you all you need to know, such as the legalities of the bulbs you wish to use..
Now, back to the question in hand; did you have a fitter in mind when you bought the H7’s, such as THQ themselves?

Well, stating the obvious the bulbs he has from THQ are illegal to use on the road. It is stamped FOR OFF ROAD USE ONLY on the box.
I believe the OP is wanting someone to fit the bulbs to the headlamps, and then the headlamps to the van, thats the way the thread reads to me anyway.
I just wanted some headlights fitted on my van but seems some legal eagles have read the box on the H7’s Lol
Haha. Plenty have done the same..
Try those firms we suggested and let us know how you get on - it’s always good to know of a trusted trader.
And when you get a minute, tell us about your van
Try joe @ Autoteknik in guisley ..He is sound
