    Having installed the Valeo LHD OEM LEDs on my Pirelli and having to do the reversing and fog lens switch on them prior to installation.

    I know for a fact that trying to get the outer lenses off the houses requires you to break tabs. The lenses are not screwed in but glued on. I would also advise against it bec it would be a bitch to reseal the housings again.

    Are the R36 housings the same?

      Thanks for the info . I'm not too sure if the R36 housings are the same but I don't think so, IIRC they'er slightly longer.

        ps. those US Altezza jetta tail lights look woeful

          Haha thanks mate. And yeah, it sounds like too big of a job and risk for it to come out as planned. I'd love a set of those GLI tails but they have the red indicator . Something to get defected for...
