I have the version for the polo fitted in my little polo GTI - works an absolute treat.

Pretty sure that aftermarket sensor can be used with an audi headlight switch. Just get the pin allocations right.

Or do a full OEM parts swap  :happy2:

Yes yes Im a sucker for factory fit bits  :grin:

That's my current headlight switch Marko, as you can see it's the 'all in one' moulded unit that Audi use, unlike the independent chamber on the VW headlight switch.


If you've got ETKA I can give you my plate index to check the exact part number?  :happy2:

Alex, thanks dude, I didn't even know these existed in truth. Possibly exactly what I've been looking for blindly, however does the leaving home and coming home functionality work on your Polo with it fitted?

That's what I want as opposed to needing the actual auto light function, slightly niche I know  :happy2:
