But they help others see you....., I open and lock the car just to see mine swipe. :cool: Have to say people have commented on them and think they give the car an upmarket image.
Are they standard on all Mk7.5 models?
The images seen of the Mk8 with meaner rear lights would appear to not be able to have them?
Arrived 15/5/17 Mk 7.5 R Lapiz 5dr DSG, Prets, Pan Roof, DCC, Rear View Cam.
Our other car is a Mk7 GTI DSG 5dr Tungsten, Vienna, Rear View Cam, Park assist.

Did see them on ebay cheaper, i think the carsystems price is ok, i'm taking it'll be quality part from them....then i had a horrible thought that i bought those darn led headlights from them for my mk6...gave them a bit stick for late delivery.
Ah i'll wear a balaclava when i'm ordering they'll never recognise me!!!

The ones for the wing mirrors aren't standard on any Golf AFAIK. Certainly my 6 month old 7.5 GTD doesn't have them.

I think they're quite cool for what they are, but they may look at bit odd against the non-dynamic indicators in the headlight unit. :undecided:

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/401542369536?_trksid=p2045573.m570.l5999&_trkparms=gh1g%3DI401542369536.N36.S1.R1.TR2 £83 delivered, just looked on the carsystems website and looks to be packaged the same as these in a plain cardboard box etc, so could be from the same supplier? not made my mind up on them yet. Would also consider changing the mirror covers to gloss black at the same time.
