Post by: MyFirstVw on 09 November 2010, 11:46
Hi ive just purchased some bora vents to update my golf did they make illuminating ones aswell as normal or do u have to do these yourself?

They did but I think they become non-illuminating around 2003

Not sure if they still do the illuminated vents  :undecided:  I know I bought a new drivers vent prior to selling my car and I had to swap the LED over as it was non-illuminating  :sad:

I assume you know you have to make a wiring loom up to get them to work in your Golf  :smiley:
