Mk6 LED Taillights

[GTD Dubber]

Hey Bandicoot,

Mine just went in one for one for the old bulb ones. The techos then did the recoding and all good. The adapters came with the lights and they just plugged straight in the existing leads and new lights. I don't know what the central elect control is but the techos didn't mention anything except recoding. Took them an hour all up. And, yep, I own a GTD.

Anyone know whether the central electrical control unit needs to be changed to effectively install LED R tail lights to a GTD?

You should just be able to recode it. I wouldn't think a new controller is needed.

that's what I thought until the place where I'm scheduled to get it done - says that the R tails are not compatible, unless the unit is changed. Just trying to do some research now...... cheers.

Get it done somewhere else. They are having a lend of you. I've had roughly 90 people get these for everything from 90TSI's through to GTI's through my German contact. Nobody to my knowledge also needed to buy a controller.
If I'm mistaken then feel free to chip in people.

Absolutely Ozram- my OEM R tails as ordered from your German contact were installed by my dealer with a simple 5 min recode (job under an hour all up). Bandicoot looks like you might need to go elsewhere.

I have mine installed; and special thanks to AdamD for the coding.

Pics will follow... I need to wash my car. :\

[bandicoot]

Yep, I think that confirms it. I shall get it sorted tomorrow. Thanks for the comments.

hey all, is it best i goto my local VW dealership to get the lights installed (will they charge me an arm and a leg??) or is there a place or someone in Sydney that can do this at an affordable price?

Any help would be appreciated!
