Mk6 LED Taillights

Yep, that's right. Rear fog should be on driver's side for RHD cars.

If only the tight buggers would make twin fogs/reverse lights it wouldn't be a problem and we might actually have a chance of seeing something when reversing at night time. The best car we have for reversing at night is the Mk1, by far, haha.

Mark V/VI with factory RVC beats the Mark I for reversing at night by a mile! It can by pitch black and you can see well with the oem RVC.

I agree - it's like wearing night vision goggles.

Yep camera is awesome.

That's actually about the most compelling argument I've heard so far in favour of rear view cameras.

We took a stab at retrofitting the Golf R Rear Tail Lights on a Golf Mark VI

Well, we know what the lights look like
More importantly, what was required to perform the retrofit (any additional parts etc, VAG-COM programming?). Also, is Singapore LHD or RHD? And if it is RHD, are there any issues with lights being on the wrong side (fog light/reverse light etc).

Singapore is RHD.

Nice work, I need those lights one day.

I assume you were pressing the brake but it doesn't look very obvious. Also looks like your rear window brake light isn't working.

hi
lol.. i did the pics posted earlier.. just couldn't help sharing our joy with you

We are RHD in Singapore, but we got the LHD from Europe with a coding interface from Kufatec, whch means no VAGCOM programming

Everything works well, but the fog lights and reverse lights are on opposite sites now. No issues in terms of operations though as we'd wired the harness to the appropriate fog/reverse lights.

oh.. actually, i've got another video with the brakes held.
in the video I posted, the brakes were not "depressed". we just turned on the lights, which lit the rear lights as well.

the rear window brake light will light up (very brightly) when we depress the "brakes"

Cheers!
