      Couldn't agree more. I think all B7 Passats have 2 reverse lights but I think the Polo & Golf do not. I can't understand the logic as the reverse lights are sub standard regarding elumination in the dark anyway let alone only having one!!

        I have to say, the reverse lights on a b7 are worse than terrible , and I have a complex reverse out of my drive... I am going to have to tuck an LED light bar in the rear under tray... thing is if the B6 is designed for one, hitman has doubled it... the b7 needs doubling twice over...

          I furthered this mod lastnight as the complete black out has never felt quite righ so i hand cut out the centre parts to make the clear centres really pop (like the r36)

          Before


          after


          Money shot


          And removing the tint also aided in making the tails brighter

                just food for thought..

                Fizz (a friend of mine on here)

                installed some LED Numberplate lights on his MK5 GTI

                from bold sport..


                They also have assisted in illuminating the immediate area behind the Car.


                Back when I had my MPS there was a company who was doing a HID Replacement Kit for the Reverse lights to help brighten up the rear at night..

                They built the kit with a fitting that went straight in to the tail light and they used a HID that was a bit shorter than normal so it didnt burn the housing of the reverse light
