hey guys, just got the golf r led tail lights installed on my cs gti. the lights were easy to fit however it looks like i may need to get recoded to remove the light blown error and warnings on the mfd, as described in this forum.

Very Cool, that will look wicked on the road!!!

Love the wheels too

Looks fantastic. More pics please!

Very keen to see how those wheels look on the CSG in daylight.

Are they coated black? Cant really tell from the pic.

Also, what size and did you drop?

Looks good. I had the pleasure of following 2x GTI's in Wolsburg a week or 2 ago and 1 had LED's the other didnt. defo they look the nuts, not sure if id pay the $$ to do it though given i change cars so often.

Pretty pumped, my LED lights are now on order .

Has anyone sorted out the coding yet?

Finally got mine delivered today. And of course, me being me, I had to fit them tonight (in the dark).
There are a lot of really good guides on various forums about the installation of these lights. Namely Steve P's inspirational one that whetted the appetite Golf Mk6 R LED Taillight Retro Fit Guide
Also a great resource has been this site LED tail Install with or without Rear Fog..
And then Golfitup's excellent video YouTube - LED install in MK6 MKVI Golf.

Parts required are -
5K0945093Q (Inner Light Left)
5K0945094Q (Inner Light Right)
5K0945095L (Outer Light)
5K0945096L (Outer Light)
The connector adapters I got also has a part number - 000 979 129 E


Just a quick couple of additions -
The inner hatch lights are definitely easier to fit if you remove the outer black / grey plastic end cap and refit it once the light is installed.

The outer nut is also a bit fiddly to get the socket onto.


All of the connectors have the pin numbers written on them so you can install them the correct way.
The trim is a little tight to fold back out of the way, especially the R/H/S. The plastic screw is fairly tight to unscrew on the outer lights (blurred).


Once unscrewed it looks like this...


Care needs to be taken to make sure that the outer lights slide under the guide lugs in the rear guard.
Overall, I love them. Only minor complaint is that the fit is not perfect, they seem to have a gap of about 1-2mm underneath the lights.




And time to play with the camera and some external light



They do put the blown globe warning light on at the dash, I plan to get the VCDS coding of Byte 18 to 04 done on Friday.
PLEASE NOTE LED's are only able to be fitted to June 2009 and newer builds. Coding for R/H drive with Halogen headlights up UNTIL WEEK 45 2009 is Byte 18 in Central electrics to 04. Coding for Halogens & Xenons AFTER WEEK 45 2009 is different please refer to Adam D's post at the bottom of this page http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/f112...-40280-26.html

They look fantastic Ozram! Great fitting info in your post too - thanks very much!

Time to update your signature - tails no longer "on order".
