No police out there anymore, just cut our police traffic lot by half and replaced with cameras everywhere!

Will the genuine OEM led plate lights work on a 2010 mk6 golf if I buy the adapter leads too. I've read with the leads the lights don't require coding but will the light units fit?

Has anyone fitted them to there mk6 with success?

I've ordered some canbus ebay units but I'd really like to keep things OEM if possible.

Cheers

You can use the oem ones from the later cars but you have to use adaptor leads with resistors in to stop the error.
Unless someones found how to code the error out now but a year or so ago it could not be coded out even when the boxes were ticked or the coding changed on the earlier cars due to them using different software to the later cars.
