Getting the LEDs in custom button covers to work (MK6 R)
Hi there,
I searched around for the best place to post this and I guess since my question is electrical based - this will do.
When I bought my MK6 R the previous owner had replaced the "blank" switches above the shifter area with aftermarket ones bought from CarStyle4you. From left to right I have: EPS, comfort / sport, R logo, park assist and garage door opener.
The problem I have is that the LEDs in the aftermarket ones (R and garage door) do not work. Not because they're broken - because he never plugged them in. I discovered this by following the installation instructions on the pdf on the website. I managed to get as far as pulling out the two aftermarket switches, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to plug their power cords in anywhere. The pdf instructions are in german and google translate has thus far not proven to give accurate instructions.
TL;DR, I'm after instructions (with photos please) on how to get the LEDs in my aftermarket buttons to work. Small simple words and pictures would be lovely.
Thanks,
