Hi

yup, it can and has been done, i did it on my old mk5 (mk6 already has it)

its simple to fit - get the single wire to the ABS controller in the engine bay - i went via under wiper cover- beneath the scuttle panel, u could go via the entry into the firewall behind the battery too.

plug in the switch, tick the box using vagcom/vcds and your done!

I also did it on my last car, wished I hadn't bothered but after all I got another button that lit up when pressed
