Rear taillight review

[Polo_GTI]

When you say pull the fog lens out is that just a plastic covering or something on the left hand side? I have these lights on the way to my door now and would appreciate any info.

What happened to ordering the lights from tuning dynamics on eBay?

Told you they seem dodgy lol

They do!!! And they also have red covers over the brake light, solves massive headaches!!

BTJ, yes, LHS tail has a red plastic cover in the shape of a half oval that you need to yank out with pliers. If stuggling, melt it into two pieces with a solder for instance. I just used brute force and yanked the piece out. Hard to explain but you will see once you get them

janpet, no idea! If you know, please let me know

Hi Guys,

I hate to be the harbinger of bad tidings, but the reference above refers to a SERVICE and NOT rear tail lights. This particular guy is offering mirror type glazing (I suppose lots of laquered layers or laser treatment..who knows) on YOUR existing tail lights. He indicates that he is able to purchase second hand ones in Germany for you and glaze them (at a cost) if you cannot supply him with your existing ones. Cost of glazing is 50euro, then 40euro to ship...can be quit costly

I was gonna say Mario, that it looks like they just used an OEM light and sprayed around the areas they mask off!

Well that confirms it, thanks mate!

[Polo_GTI]

Ahh cool thanks for that.. Ill be staying away from those then

@fastlane have you got any non blurred pics of the Mars tails lit up? Are they the lights you posted a pic of lights off?

Whats the technique to removing the tail lights? Any interior trim panels need to be removed?
