    LED exterior swap out

    Hi guys,

    I've done a bit of research but haven't really managed to find a solution just yet.

    I know quite a few of you have replaced your rear licence plate lights for LED's, but has anyone replaced anything in the tails or headlights (besides parkers)?

    Having spent quite a lot of money on these "no error, canbus" bulbs with (supposedly) built in resistors, I cannot for the life of me change a bulb that won't trip the bulb error message.

    Now I've seen people changing code to avoid the message.. would anyone happen to know if it is even possible for the Polo's?

    Furthermore, in regards to the indicators, having done my old car, I know I had to change the flasher relay to avoid the excessive flashing. Does anyone know what we have to do in order to avoid the excessive flashing due to lower power consumption of the LED's? I REALLY don't want to add those resistors that heat up excessively.

    I'm hoping to hear anything from anyone!

    Cheers, Eddie

    No idea about the LED bulbs and whatnot, but these are what you tick to stop bulb out errors on the tacho.
