From this post:

Build date: Week 45 2009 - mid-late 2010
Central Electrics Revision*: 0573 or 0575
Headlights: Bi-Xenon
OPTION 1 (definitely works for some; ref this post and this post):
- Coding (hex): 15
- Coding (binary): 00010101
OPTION 2 (advised by one supplier; doesn't work for some):
- Coding (hex): 43
- Coding (binary): 01000011

So... probably. Depends on your Central Electrics revision.

hey guys
couldnt figure out where to post this so i thought this would be as good as any other thread...

My brother in-law wants some LED running lights for his Pirelli so i was searching around on ebay but couldnt really find anything that sparked interest
Anyone know where i can source some of these and have them installed? or is this something i could DIY easily? (i'm not the most competent in the world)
Thanks

Hey mate,

As the Pirelli's a Mk5, you're probably better off searching through that forum, and posting there if you can't find anything. But I've seen a number of Mk5s driving around here in SA with LED running lights, so they're obviously available.

I had a quick check of ECS Tuning; they have quite a few options available.

Hi all,

So I have just read thru the last 44 pages of this thread and am happy with the thought that when I take delivery of my GTI on Wednesday I would like to put the LEDs on it.

As the ADIDAS model has the LEDs is there a option of getting them here is Australia or is it still best to order them thru Ozram???

Also is there anyone who can do the coding on the Gold Coast????

I just spoke with a guy in spare part at VW liverpool in Sydney and he said the LED tails are $279 each, now I am not sure whether thats each light eg X4 or X2
food for thought though

Based on what's being charged elsewhere, I would expect that's the per part cost - and there are four lights in total (although I would have expected the outer tails to be slightly more expensive). There's also an adapter set required on top of that. You'd probably not see much change (if any) from $1,200 for parts alone.
