There are a few people running them on here.
It's not the full scroll indicators though, you need Facelift mk7.5 lights for that.

You can get a halfway version and they are in plenty of threads here, it's just a wiring harness adaptor. Some work better than others. Some mean you get a few red LED's not working and others have full functioning, some are cheap and some cost quite a lot of money.
They feature quite often in threads over on the R forum too vwroc.com/forums and no doubt over on golfmk7.com

Often referred to as dynamic tail lights.

If you don't mind splurging a fair chunk of cash then there are these options;-

Or doing it on a budget (and I personally prefer the Pre-FL tail lights)

Or another option could be to go for the 'pace car' indicators? That's something  you don't see on other cars.

Pretty sure, as the name may suggest, these are not road legal.
