Mk6 LED Taillights

[MkVIGTI]

I'm tempted too... drools

[Hail]

I'd be keen!

Yep, I'd be up for a group buy too.

I've seen that guy from the UK post on another forum too regarding installation... the physical installation looks pretty straight forward, but the reprogramming thing has me baffled (is that something only a dealer can do?).

Anyone here from Hobart that knows that sort of stuff?

Found this on Youtube.
GTI MkVI with LED tail lights. Looks hot.

Is it just me, or does it look like the plastic cover is not 'tinted dark' like it is on the R version?

Could just be the crappy cameras and the difference in paint colour.

Maybe that's the "cherry red" vs the plain "red"? There's an option to buy either -- although I'm guessing almost everyone will go for the darker cherry red...

Friendly bump... anyone know how to organise a group buy?

I'm guessing we'd need a rough number of interested parties, and then a delegate could contact the seller and find out if a volume discount is possible. Not sure whether shipping could still be arranged individually - hopefully that's possible. I'm potentially interested, depending on the price, so I'm a tentative buyer.

Maybe before a group buy occurs and there are a lot of potential unhappy people, someone should purchase them first and install them to ensure that there are no gotcha's which are going to stop everyone from using these?!

I'm just figuring that there much be a reason that VW Australia are not offering such a 'cool' accessory for the Australian market.

VWA may not be offering them yet as they are standard on the Golf R and have only recently been made available in Europe as an option for the GTI (I think).

Anyway the US supplier requires a minimum of 10 to give a 'small' discount, postage is around $35 apparently per set for those wondering. I'm going to be getting these but not for a little while yet, just paid for my new wheels and want to see what they're like on and if I need an urgent drop before commiting to any new mods.
