    Jetta Vs. Passat Tail Lights

    Quick question.

    Is there a difference between Passat & Jetta tail lights.

    I own a Jetta and I like r36 tail lights. Go figure

    r36



    vs.

    Jetta



    It may seem obvious, but i've been convincing myself that there isnt much difference...I realise there is a difference between the two photo's above, but I contend that is purely because of the angles at which the photos are taken.

    The R36 tailight are more curved where as teh jetta has a more angular shape.
    This is noticable on the top inner coner of the boot light.

    Why not just get these:

    Your Jetta seems to not have LED tail lights! What's going on?

    Did you not notice that the R36 reflectors are chrome instead of red... ?

    What do you think about the fried egg style tail lights on the CC?

    Even better, the mods which switch the parking & brake light signals.

    Did you find out if the tail lights are interchangeable between Passt & Jetta?
