There is a very good reason not to run the stock wiring with the
potentially higher wattage Euro beams.  There's a tech procedure on
scirocco.org you might want to take a look at.  At this point,  you're
probably lucky it's the fuses, as the headlight switch will probably
follow at some point...as the power runs through the switch to the
headlights.

Bad grounds, bad positive cable, dead battery?  Replace with good lines,
add grounds...between alt case and neg battery, alt case and cylinder
head (?), neg battery and car body, neg battery and engine...should
do it.  Take 3 or 4 ground cables, apply them, and call me in the
morning. :)
