LED Numberplate Lights

[jdbrown1953]

Based on other posts I checked the numberplate lights on my 110 TDI Hilighline. No LED number plate lights. Had the car for 6 months now and never thought to check. More to the point I shouldn't have to!.

The official VWA Brochure still has the LED numberplate lights listed as part of the Bi-Xenon option (they also have it listed separately). I've downloaded it and saved a copy.

Been to my dealer and they are awaiting confirmation from VWA that they will replace. Everyone who ordered Bi-Xenon's should check their numberplate lights and get onto their dealer if all is not in order.

Hi JD,

I have recently purchased a golf gti mk7 with the bixenon option and noticed the "LED number plate lights" are yellowish (3000k colour temperature same as normal halogen light bulbs) rather than a white (4000k colour temperature). Is this similar to your highline?

I will check later tonight after work if this is the case and will get back to my dealer ASAP.

They won't be led lights. I'd be going back to dealer ASAP. I'm in the process of getting my led number plate lights on my brand new GTI that I paid for as part of the xenon package.

Thanks Brendan! I contacted the dealer a few minutes ago and he told me to take it to the VW service centre for replacement of the lights.

Post some pics of your new car when you get it! be interested to see! I am waiting for my photographer friend to help me take some pics of my car one night!

The latest (Feb 14) brochure has the LED number plate lights as a dealer-fitted accessory for the Golf, but a standard fitment for the Golf Wagon - for all of 90TSI, 90TSI Comfortline, 103TSI Highline and 110TDI Highline.

There has only been one GTI brochure printed September 2013 and says its part of the xenon package.

Booked in to have mine replaced next week with LED by the dealer. Looks to be a common oversight? When I say oversight...I hope that's all it was...

Dealer fitted led number plate lights to our GTI today. I'll try them out tonight.

I got a GTI which I picked up in jan without the LED number plates. What are my chances of getting this retrofit? Do I just call my dealer up or do I need a copy of brochure? If so would someone be able to send a copy through to me.

Thanks
