I agree. To each his own though.

Aaggh.. I want LED tails. I take it back. I don't agree. I've put the order in! :O

Good, they make the GTI look less like a family car (which it isn't) so I guess it's in keeping with your first statement.

So...I sheepishly mention to the 'leader of the opposition' that I'm interested in getting some LED tails and tell her the price and she says, " I'll pay half. Merry Christmas".

I've seen them on a red GTI before....it looks amazing.

Wow, great post Adam. Is there any chance that could get stickied at the start of the thread?

Cheers mate. It actually is linked, in a fairly roundabout way. The original first post of this thread has been edited and has a link to that post; confusingly this thread was then merged with another at one point, and so there are a few other posts that now precede it. But Corey's added a link to the old 'first post' in the new 'first post'. And now I've just confused myself... :-p

I still haven't received my lights unfortunately. My holidays came and went and it has been 33 days since I paid for them. I guess it has something to do with the Christmas break but it does seem to be pretty slow postage. Hopefully I'll get them this week...

A big thank you to OSRAM for supplier details in Germany - R LED tails arrived and installed a few weeks back.

About to get it coded by local Volkswagen shop - however lost the coding sheet that came with the lights.

Any one know the latest coding instructions for my 2011 June build MY2012 Golf GTI. Thanks

See this post.

Thanks Adam, unfortunately the post has coding for all models up to but not including GTI MY2012 - applicable to my car.

Has anyone successfully coded the R Tails on a MY12+ (halogen lights). Appreciated if you could share the coding. Thanks.

Per post below:
"
Build date: 2011+ (MY12+)
Central Electrics Revision*: Beyond 0615
- Coding to be determined. "

That's not actually true - I need to reword the post. That post has coding instructions for Central Electrics revisions up to and including 0615. What's yours? (The post tells you how to check.) I've not heard of anyone with a new build car having problems with the 0615 coding yet.

And if anyone does have any more info on the latest revisions, please let me know and I'll update the coding post.
