Mk6 LED Taillights

[sVWatt]

Not even 'smoked' - they are 'blacked out' - good luck on that. You might want to see if the coating can be removed. They are far darker than the dark R's or cherry Gti's as standard.

Hi AdamD, thanks for your reply they are genuine lights but have been modified i believe here's the link where i bought them and how they look:

OEM Euro VW Golf MK6 R LED black/white tail lights - BKS-Tuning

hey guys i've got a smoked genuine LED's on my GTI, cop pulled me over saying its illegal. Now my argument is if the part is genuine VW and it provides same amount of breaking light visibility whats the problem??!!!!

Im not surprised you were pulled over - they are very dark. A guy on another forum i frequent purchased the same ones (from BKS) for his Golf R. We all said he would be asking for trouble. As mentioned above, can you remove the coating/film that is on them to get rid of the darkness?

i see, well that sucks. Not gonna bother removing the coat or anything they can have a fat one, seen plenty of cars with blacked tail lights, didnt pay that $$$ for nothing .

Thanks for your help fellas!!!!

Ahh, youth. You will learn, they always win no matter how little sense they sometimes make.

are cabriolet lights the same as the hatch and vice versa?

I cant say with 100% certainty - but to me the lights on the cabriolet look to be a different shape, mainly where the lights join to the rear 3/4 panel and bumper. The inner lights appear to be the same, but the outer lenses are a slightly different shape if you ask me.

Looking at getting Golf R tail lights for my GTI and came across jku.com.au
They are located in QLD, and supposedly have genuine VW parts from germany.
Does anyone have any experience with them?
I'd like to know before pullin the trigger on getting some lights.

Thanks guys

I purchased a set for my GTI from jku.com.au in October last year, great service, great Hella OEM product, look brilliant when installed.

Very Happy.

They're certainly more expensive than the German VW dealer that the majority of people in this thread (myself included) have used for genuine LED tails. But of course JKU needs to run a local business etc.
