Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Rear interior lights - Golf GTi. Are they backlit in red?

    Simple questions chaps - the front reading lights and central lights switches are backlit in red at night.

    Can anyone check with the rear reading lights as to whether these are backlit in your car? It could be either way, but would just like to check. It bugs me they are not, but only because I would like them to be, and I'm rather loopy when it comes to knowing if things are working or not. Hence the question.

    Can others with GTi's check to see if they are or not?

    Cheers

          Mine doesn't light up as well. Funny how VW left out this simple detail.

              lol Ryan_R! Yeah... I'm a bit like that too. The only time I've ever been in the back of my R is when I vacuumed it and then did the leather cleaning and conditioning!
