    BTW you hid the licence plate on the first picture, but forgot to do it on the next two pictures.
    Thank you!

    What cornering light? Does my MY18 comfortline have it?

    Yes , decided to not censor the plate as i was on a crowded train and couldn't be bothered

    They says u can buy from them and get a local autoelectrician to do it ( or even DIY if u know what u are doing). They charged $80 for the labour for this job.

    You can buy he kit and do it yourself. The low beam JW Speaker LED bulb requires an adaptor which they will ship to fit but it is a real pain to install as access is bad and you need to contort your get it fitted. The DRLs are easy but with two CAN bus resisters (one for DRL and one for the low beam) it gets very tight in the housing. The eBay DRL lights do not require CANbus resister compared to the one by BlingWork.

    You can can play with the low beam adjustment to dip it so you will not blind other drivers.

    Mine has and I have a Comfortline too. It only turns on when you turn the wheel. It is next to the fog light. Or is it the same light?
    I think it's a different bulb and the lights are slightly looking sideways.

    This is from VW website under the Comfortline standard feature list:
    Front fog lamps with static cornering lights

    Yes, this is something I did not understand.
    I just upgraded my DRL with a cheap $6 LED bulbs from eBAY and it was a direct replacement, perfect fit, no additional resistor or anything needed, error free.

    I have worked it out today like u said when the car turn a 90deg bend the foglight turns on the same side to light up the road. It is still from a LED source so maybe its the same bulb
