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

    click on picture below for a video clip after we've fitted it

    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).

    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.

    Yeah - this could be an issue in Australia. Does anyone know what the laws are about fog lights/reversing lights when there is only a single one of each?

    I'm currently trying to communicate with a seller in Germany for the correct UK spec lights for Australia. The inner left & right part numbers are different to the rest of Europe. The parts needed for Australia with the fog light on the right are

    5K0945093Q (Inner Light Left)
    5K0945094Q (Inner Light Right)
    5K0945095L (Outer Light)
    5K0945096L (Outer Light)

    Adapter cables are also needed as the R lights have a different connector to standard Golfs.

    Coding with Vagcom will also be required. AFAIK the Kufatec box is only for LHD or European spec.

    Now that I've got the car, I don't mind having the standard tail lights. They actually look pretty good at night. And I find it especially classy for the tail lights to slowly 'fade on & off' when the leaving home function of the head lights are enabled. The LED ones obviously cannot replicate this.

    Hey guys, Can you confirm if these part numbers are the Cherry Red (Golf R) or Light Red (Normal Golf) LED Lights, to go against the trend, I was actually trying to get normal LED lights and leave the Cherry LED's for the Golf R Owners.

    Please let me know.

    Hey guys I did another Google and search and found these links where people have posted the part numbers for all the different styles you can get.

    VWVortex.com - Installed OEM LED Tails !!!!!!

    Golf R LED Tail Lights - Page 4 - VW GTI MKVI Forum / VW Golf MKVI Forum / VW Golf R Forum / VW GTI Forum - Golfmk6.com

    So to confirm this:

    NON Golf R style LED Lights: (lighter red)

    - 5K0945093S (Inner Light Left) (No Fog)
    - 5K0945094S (Inner Light Right) (With Fog)
    - 5K0945095K (Outer Light Left)
    - 5K0945096K (Outer Light Right)

    Golf R style LED Lights: (darker red)

    - 5K0945093Q (Inner Light Left) (No Fog)
    - 5K0945094Q (Inner Light Right) (With Fog)
    - 5K0945095L (Outer Left)
    - 5K0945096L (Outer Right)

    Can someone please confirm this?

    Fog has to be in the middle or the right side (furtherest away from the kerb) and reverse on the left side (closest to the kerb). The ADR's spell this out very clearly.
