Title: Tried and Tested Error Free Number Plate Lights??
Post by: Gaz on July 23, 2015, 11:26:25 am

Has anyone got some error free number plate lights that they have tried and tested on a Golf with bulb monitoring?

Im after a set for my Mk6 as the genuine ones i have fitted are showing an error and my BCM isnt new enough to be coded for them.

I want to buy a set that i know will work error free!

Links to ones you have tried and tested people!

Mk6 need newer BCM to be fully compatible with LED bulbs. Mk5 are much easier... I have friends that tried everything and still get the bulb warning light. :confused:

Just update the BCM and you'll be able to sort that issue. ;)

I've just find this link with a great price for the OEM LED bulbs: http://www.suwtec.de/Original-VW-LED-Kennzeichenleuchte-Golf-Variant-Touran-Touareg-Sharan-1K8943021C_1 (http://www.suwtec.de/Original-VW-LED-Kennzeichenleuchte-Golf-Variant-Touran-Touareg-Sharan-1K8943021C_1)

I got my MK5 bulbs from here, http://stores.ebay.co.uk/newgateecoliving/ and I've not had any errors logged or warning lights. Dunno if that helps or not, but I hope so :)
