Hi all
I've got a 2015 Mk7 Golf R. It has factory Xenon headlamps. I've fitted 2018 7.5 LED lamps to it (I believe PR 8IT)
Looking at the wiring diagram, all functions of operation are done inside the lamp rather than individual wires like the old lamps. There were 14 wires on the old lamps and only 6 on the new ones.
Unlike the old wiring diagram, it doesn't show the wiring tracks inside the lamp. However the CAN wire are the same and both lamps communicate fine.
The Kufatec MK7.5 conversion kit only shows the 2 lamps and coding dongle required. (No wiring mods)
Leaving me to the coding part. I've carried out adaption mods before for things but this is a minefield. Mainly because there is so much conflicting information available,
Posts that are not the same model as mine and most of the channels are in German.
I'm very experienced with VCDS but cant seem to fine the correct adaption channels to change for this mod.
I had found some helpful information on a forum but it didn't work. Someone who claimed that these channels were correct but after hours of trying it was no good.
It seems the channels vary quite a lot between models as I copied an ad map from my friends 2018 GTI with factory LEDs and the channels advised didn't match his car either.
From what I can see, ad maps vary between models and people are assuming by supplying the information of what they changed for their model (EG GTI rather that R) is not the same.
Id really appreciate any help from Anyone who has done this to a Golf R or actually knows the correct adaption channels to change.
Ill gladly share all the wiring diagrams or anything else I have.
The Scan below is with the front end off the car so ignore most of the faults.
Thank you in advance.
