LED MKV Rear Lights
« on: September 04, 2012, 09:16:58 pm »
ok guys im new to the modding game so need abit of help. basically i want to get these LED mk6 GOLF GTI like Rear Lights, there E Marked which should mean im allowed to use them in the UK? i think there from germany. do you guys think i will need to make modifications in order to fit in place or will be straight swap?

Can anyone shed some light on this and thanks in advance.

Looks to me like you'll have to reverse the fog and reversing lights to make it MOT passable.
Without traction power is nothing!

These look decent when lit but look cheap and chavvy when not in my opinion.
Having said that I'm only going by pictures.

Kingabzzy:

I have these on my car. Fitted them couple weeks ago, and yes you need to reverse the fog and reverse lights. (I didn't know this when buying them)

does anything else need changing and isit easy to change the lights around? have you got any pics of how the lights are on your car?

I will try and get some up tonight if I remember to! Have you got an email I can send them to straight off my phone? I only know how to upload onto photobucket and then onto here, but that takes too long!

I have to agree !

I don't like them at all even when lit, they just don't look like Orginal mk6 items, it just look really cheap and tacky.

Just my personnel opinion.
