Mk6 LED Taillights

[AdamD]

Looks great OE.

Definitely a mod that I am interested in.

+1 on both points.

I saw a GTI at night a couple of evenings ago, and wasn't blown away by the stock tail lights. As soon as someone's brave enough to do this mod in Australia, please post your experiences buying and installing!

I got mine installed today.



I also replaced the bulbs for the turn signals with LED bulbs.

I like them a lot.

Looks great Orient Express.

I noticed your post on vortex media group. Do you know if it's possible to get the auto windows up working with the keyfob? The pre-face lift used to allow you to hold the button down just for an instant instead of the whole time the windows are closing.

Cheers,

Yes, the Mk6 can be set to roll the windows down with the Key fob, and to close all the windows (and the sunroof if it is open) with the Key Fob. To set this, you have to make a setting change in the 09 Central Electrics module using either a VAG-COM software console, or have your dealer do it

Here is a link to all of the tweaks for the Mk6

Hi, it's working but not like the MK5, as I didn't have to hold the button down the whole time the windows are going up. ie, you could walk away from the car once you saw the windows start going up.

called up local vw dealer and parts centre, you can now get the golf r led tail lights for $1400 (exy!) - just the lights, no fitting. the service centre also mentioned they cannot do the install as they dont have the cable adapters to do the retrofit on the gti....short story, they wont do it.

You can get them for around $800 shipped *with* connector cables if you talk to the right people. $1400 is just plain crazy. They are around 600 Euros list price from the factory.

Last line on that website:

"Not suitable for right hand drive, not suitable for USA"....????

[Corey_R]

The USA have their own light regulations which are different from Europe. For example, most cars in the USA dont' have separate indicators and use their brake lights for indication...

Sorry I was more thinking about first part "Not suitable for right hand drive"

[Corey_R]

Oh... well, that part should be really obvious. The fog light and reverse lights will be on the wrong side of the car!

Thank You coreying ... I was thinking it is something more.

anyway is there an legal issue having them (fog & reverse light) on opposite sites?

[Corey_R]

Yes. ADR's define which side they need to be on. So your car could be defected etc.
