Hi guys,
I've seen a few threads about rear LED's and a group buy of some kind, which all seem to be before I bought my golf.
I'd like to replace mine with the grey/black ones but am not sure where to look for the good ones.
Theres some on eBay but I don't want to end up with some cheap rubbish ones.
Any advice is very much appreciated.
Thanks.

I believe these are DEPO reps, which I would presume are pretty high standard.

thats them alright. no coding required? outstanding!!

man they look sweet

I'm still after a set keep us informed if you find any more
-
I've contacted parts4euro to see if they will do a discount :smiley:
-
I could be in if we can get a discount.
-
Me too. 100%. Just need to decide if the black/smoke ones are going to look good on my carbon grey gti. I really don't want to make the car look ricey/boyracer at all.
-
folks! i'm a late comer to the tail light party myself.. :tongue: count me in for the discount deal.. i'm after the tinted red set, golf R sytle.. this will be ideal as I don't have to fork out more cash to update my BCM..
on the parts4euro website, i noticed the fog lights are on the passenger side.. could this be a MOT failure? i wonder if they would swap sides to supply for RHD cars..

Thay have said they will do a discount if I get 10 buyers, just waiting to confirm prices and P&P

what about these one at £299

-
They look alright.
Until someone takes a chance we won't know and at £300 I think I'll wait on someone's feedback.
-
ive got the dm ones in my ebay watching as well, :rolleyes: just unsure how good they are, or if they need modding for uk?
-
Parts for Euro have said they will do 10% off if we get 10 buyers so 10% off $499.99 is $450 $459 to GBP is roughly £297 what do people think?
-
hi obbzi, are they plug and play rhd etc, is delivery included, if yes then im definetely interested :smiley:
-
They seem to be for lhd also surely there will be import duty to pay ?
-
NWaiting to hear if they doa RHD version, import duty from previous experiences is hit and miss I think :undecided:
-
I'm interested if the foglamp is on the proper side for RHD
Can't be bothered with altering them or the car.
-
Price is good :)
I wonder if the german ones on eBay are the same..
-
Just realised these suppliers are a site sponsor :cool:

Ive just had a message from dm autoteile regarding lights,
Seems they have to be modded for rhd uk use, im awaiting

Yeah i think these will be a great set, they have good reviews and sell many high end parts,
I will be buying them with in 2 weeks, so a group buy discount would be great
-
They look good but I want some that come with all the correct lamps for UK use.
I can't buy originals or I'd need a new body controller as mine is a September 09 car.

No idea mate, I thought these were pretty much straight swap - or just LED connectors? Anyone any ideas?
-
I think they're a straight swap but I'd like to know if they have a foglamp on the right and not the left.
-
Ok guys, it seems the dm autoteile lights have the fogs
And reverse lights on the wrong sides, im probably gonna
Order a set anyway, its not difficult to mod them.

Cant you ask them if they can change it for us before shipment - and let them know we can get about 10 sold on a group buy.

oh thats good news.....do they do them in dark cherry red as oppose to smoked black (link on 1st page)
As i would prefer cherry red.
-
My bad, just been on their site, they do cherry red, dark cherry red and black.
What do people like, im thinking dark cherry red for my CSG
-
come on....is someone sorting this out :laugh:
Im sure we have 5-10 people who want these by now.

Why dont you arrange it m8 :)

Does anyone actually know what's involved in making them legal in the UK?
I'm not keen paying money like that not to pass an MOT

No probs ross, ive had a few emails from the seller, but his
Understanding of the english language is vague, from what
Ive read it seems with a bit of small rewiring these lights
Will be suitable for uk use etc, and poss a bit of vcds coding.
Im going to order a set when i get home today,
Btw it seems the buyers not keen on a multibuy etc.

Not sure if you have misread that but the lights DO need fog and reverse swapping over.
I'm just waiting to see how much my car will cost to be repaired before I decide whether to buy some now :cry:
-
I'm unsure if I'm missing something here.
If you buy LHD lamps it won't be a wiring alteration required will it?
If fitted as they are your reverse lamp will be red and your foglamp will be white.
So even with the wiring changed the foglamp will be on the left and if you buy the set with twin foglamps does that mean you don't have any reverse light?
If I was buying it would be the smoked cherry red same as oem Gti and R
-
Oy my god, why the hell is some English manufacture not making RHD one from the start, then we wouldn't have to fuss around with these :tongue:
-
I'm trying to see if my mate can get them,he works for a motor factor so he is checking oem listings.
-
I don't fancy all the hassle of swapping things around , or teh possibility of being stung for import tax, so will give these a miss.
I am keeping an eye out so will keep you all posted :smiley:
-
Hi guys,
New to golf scene and looking at getting some R LED lights, obvious choice would be the oem ones but I'm sure you'll all understand that money dictates these decisions!
I've seen these on eBay: not sure what people's thoughts were on these?

Well the first ones do not have led indicators or reverse or foglamps.
The second ones look the best but don't say too much about them and I'm not sure on the bank transfer only thing?
My cars a September 09 so oem LEDs can't be coded in with a new body controller.
I'm waiting on someone taking the plunge to hear what they're like.
-
I wouldnt go for either of the above 2. Only bank transfer - Yeah right, nice scam, he hasnt sold anything since Christmas on paypal.
And second one is from Romania - they quality will be crap.
Its has to be English, German or american.....
Did someone enquire about these:

i spoke to DM, and he put in his message that the fog would need swapping over.
Is it difficult to do?
-
Yeh, m8 i got the same message from him, im not going to
Know until they arrive, it seems theyve already been shipped

just waiting to hear back about me being able to get them,can get the outers ok oem and insurance approved for around £75 each.
-
Is your car a 59plate mate?
If so its unlikely the oem lamps will work without throwing the bulb failure lamp on.
That's what's stopping me buying the oem ones.

Yep a 59 but you can get adaptors on ebay then get them coded.

Sorry I'm not sure what you're saying you can get for £75..

I think if you do some research the body controllers for 59 plate cars can't be coded correctly for oem led lamps, this is using the adapters too.
-
Sorry I'm not sure what you're saying you can get for £75..
At the moment I can get the outer led lights for £75 (still waiting about the inners)but marshy has posted above that they may not be suitable anyway will have to look into it more.
-
When I looked in to it if your car was pre 2010 then a new body controller was required.
For thermos and controller were £850!!!!!
That's the reason I like these after market ones but need the foglamps and reverse lamps in the correct places.

oh well, let me know if you work out how to swap the lights over :smiley:
-
I've just checked the version of my controller and its not compatible with oem LED lamps.
My cars a September 09
Interestingly from the research it seems that if you have xenons with drls then your controller should be compatible.
I'm back to these ones that need modified and awaiting feedback for when they arrive.
-
Just a quick update for you guys, my new rear led lights arrived today :smiley:
I quickly fitted them at lunchtime break, they are plug and play, and manufactured by depo :smiley:
I havent done the fog and reverse light swap as yet but hope to over the weekend, the quality and fitment of the lights is spot on, colour wise there a dark cherry which compliments the candy white paint.
Ill post up some pix soon...
Cal
-
Top man.
Very interested in the outcome on this :grin:
-
Nice one ,these seem the one then :smiley:
-
Come on Candy Man....Gets some pics up ASAP !!! :laugh:
I want to put my order in.....
PS....Please drop a link so i can make sure i get the exact same ones. Thanks
-
Be patient. Best things come to those who wait. :whistle:
-
Sorry if this has been answered before but after reading a LOT of rear LED posts I'm still confused. I'm just about to pickup my June 2009 golf gti and want to put rear LEDs on. Am I correct in that I would have to upgrade the BCM if I used the genuine VW parts it if I went with the depo ones I would just needed make sure they were the fog ones and after fitting them with the adapters I would have to recode the VCDS?
-
come on Candy, Give us an update....cant wait to see the fit and if you have managed to get the fogs sorted out
-
not had a chance to rewire lights, will do during week, iphone pix for now :grin:

-
so are they spot on, as good as OEM or close?
Do the re-wire look hard, whats involved?
-
There good light units, definetaly worth the money :smiley: ive never owned original mk6 led lights, so cant make judgments, however they seem same quality as the halogen lights that i removed, hth
-
they look the business. now to address the issue of all the lights working before I commit to buying a set!
-
definitely looks the part... :smiley:
i'm curious, what comes on for reverse and fog light respectively before making any wiring mods? this might give a better clue for making mods.
I'm thinking if it'll just be a matter of bulb swap, as current setup should light up wrong colored bulb but on the correct sides, if this makes any sense at all..

But surely when you put your car in reverse it tells the wrong side to light up?
Really awaiting response from Candy...either way im gonna get them, ill get my electronics guy to sort if i cant.
-
Unless you can modify to have a red fog lamp on the right then they will jot pass an mot or be legal in the UK.
From what I can see changing the wiring will make the fog lamp on the left and reverse on the right!
-
Had another look at the lights tonight and it seems that ill have to replace the fitted clear fog light with a red 21 watt bulb, which will replace the dull 16watt fitted bulb, as for the reverse light im thinking it maybe a led that fitted as i cant find a bulb inside the fitting? Ive temporarily painted the fog light with red paint, and ive ordered a red bulb from the bay, these lights have definetaly been one of my best purchases so far!
Just wanted to let you guys who are thinking of getting these, that they are great quality and fit etc. hth

So does your rear fog light up on the right(driver) side and the reverse light on the left?
did you do any wiring mods? if you did, some quick guide will help us future buyers.. :smiley:

Are they RHD lamps ie reverse light on the left and fog on the right?
How much did they cost including delivery?
Thanks

They are plug and play no coding needed and no error messages :smiley:

Delivery was free and they were £280 and he can get more of them.
They do look identical to OEM in my humble opinion :smiley:

I text him yesterday and he replied after a few hours.
He says he'll have some more in a couple of weeks. He also said he had 1 set left which had very light scratches on one of the inner lamps which he said would probably polish out.
He wanted £260 collected for them which I thought was steep!
He was selling undamaged ones delivered for £289
-
I spoke to this guy, he said his are RHD and he says they are OEM quality, as they always do, but his feedback seems good.
Maybe worth a shout.

They say manufactured by Depo but don't say RHD?
-
Theyre identical to mine m8, have a look at the back of the
Light fitting in the pic, there is no bulb in the holder for reverse
Which suggests lhd same as mine.
-
why is it so fricking difficult so find some RHD rear light....im gonna make my own at this rate.
I dont know if they are just generic picture, ill message him again.

I've lost track of what's going on now :whistle:

They are made by Depo so awaiting your feedback Ross.

Those ones look a lot great, will be nice to see some fitted pics
-

They arrived just as i was leaving to back to work from lunch. Did a quick unbox, they look great. So other than plugging in and testing, how do i know if they are RHD. They both looked to have bulb on lower section of main light.
-
It'll be difficult to tell.
Awaiting pics and your feedback.
Waiting to hit buy it now :grin:

I've just had a message from that eBay seller and he says they're definitely RHD.

Sorry to hear that mate. Are you sending them back or modifying them?

What colour is your reverse lamp?
If all the lamps are correct apart from a white foglamp then is it just a case if buying a red bulb?
Is the reverse light on the left and is it white?

No its red, thats the problem :angry:
I can buy a red bulb for fog but it the left hand side one, dont think i can get in to the unit to switch the bulb or red plastic
-
Have you had a reply yet?
You'd wonder why so many manufacturers make these lamps but nobody does RHD!!!
From looking through your short shifter thread on the mk5 forum I ended up on your Photobucket library.
These lights look very good too :sad:
-
Spent an hour or so looking for compatible lamps.
Here's one
http://www.parts4euro.com/style-red-smoked-led-taillights-for-mk6-golf-gti-p-1964.html
These are listed as rhd with the option of lhd
Next up

These say halogen fog lamp and reverse lamps so you'd think the bulbs would be changeable.
Opinions please.
-
Both sets are nice, i prefer the second set youve listed, they look
Like depo lights, which are decent quality .
-
Have you had any luck with yours mate?
I use my reverse lamp to light my driveway when reversing so it needs to be white.
-
The ones I have bought just need a red lamp for the fog, the reverse light is white. Not had chance to look at them to see if its an easy change
-
Thanks for that.
-
Have you had any luck with yours mate?
I use my reverse lamp to light my driveway when reversing so it needs to be white.
Havent done anything with reverse light yet, ive just put
A red bulb in the fog light for now, im off work soon so
Will get a proper look soon.

Had another look at the lights tonight and it seems that ill have to replace the fitted clear fog light with a red 21 watt bulb, which will replace the dull 16watt fitted bulb, as for the reverse light im thinking it maybe a led that fitted as i cant find a bulb inside the fitting? Ive temporarily painted the fog light with red paint, and ive ordered a red bulb from the bay, these lights have definetaly been one of my best purchases so far!
Just wanted to let you guys who are thinking of getting these, that they are great quality and fit etc. hth
Cal
Did you manage to get hold of a red 21w bulb? If so where from?
All I need to sort mine is a red lamp for the fog light as the reverse light is correct :smiley:
Glad its an easy fix :smiley:

On the lamps you've already purchased are the indicators led or do they have a bulb?

Not sure I think indicators are LED will look tomorrow.
Quite a few people on here have putchased these with no issues

Got a reply from the Ebay seller, so good news, well kind of. This was their reply:
"Hello,
We are so, so sorry for this mix up. We ordered these lights but we have ordered the wrong spec, which means they are indeed left hand drive. This is totally our fault, and we cannot be more sorry for this inconvenience.
The fog light is easily solved by getting a red bulb, but the reverse light is LED which means it cannot be changed.
We have tried to source the right hand drive version but they are yet to be imported, which means the only option is to collect them from you to exchange for a full refund.
Please can you name a day where somebody is available all day for collection?
Can you also kindly please put your eBay ID in the box, with a short note saying why they're being returned.
Please accept our sincerest apologies. Unfortunately there was one letter difference between both products."
So i will be sending them back, still on the hunt for RHD at £300, ive asked them if they will be getting RHD in. awaiting reply.
-
I've took a chance on the second set I listed earlier.
They are LHD but say reverse and foglamp are halogen so hopefully just a quick bulb swap.
They come from Romania but are made by dectane.

I really dont think they are going to work, it look the exact same kit i got. It has the exact same black box adaptors, orange transformer and came with the same 3M sticky pads.
Well good luck, let us know how u get on mate.

For £239 delivered I'll sort something.

Candyman, what sort of lamp did you buy as I'm struggling to find one!
The lamp I need is lke a large capless wedge (sidelight etc but bigger) so I need a red 21w one.
Do you have a link please? Thanks mate

Look for a t15 wedge bulb red 21 watt

Candy, did you manage to get your reverse light sorted yet, or still running Red reverse light?
-
Not done anything with reverse at the mo, to be honest
Its not really important to me. Ill look into it someday lol
-
Thanks candyman :smiley: Thats the one I was lookign at but unsure what type the lamp was :laugh:
The lamp in the OEM lights is slightly bigger than the one in my new LED's so wasn't sure as I've never seen one that size before
-
Also new to the tail light party.
Just read through the whole post. Would I be right in saying the genuine led lights (which would come as standard on a 2011 Golf Gti) 'CANNOT' be purchased from a proper Volkswagen dealer even for a price? Sorry if I missed this in a previous post.
Thanks..

Yes they can be - just very expensive mate, were all trying to find RHD for around £300-£350.

Thanks for the reply mate. How expensive is 'very expensive' lol

5K0 945 095 Q (Outer Light)
5K0 945 096 Q (Outer Light)

You'll need the adapters as the connection for a halogen light is different to the one on the LED lamp, these:

Connectors on your existing tail light (halogen bulbs) are not the same as the new LED units, thus the adaptors.
You also have to check if your BCM revision accepts LED, so u can remove bulb error light on your dash by coding it. Cars after Sept 2009 build has the correct module, for build before that you've to change the BCM unless you had xenons on the front.

(http://i1085.photobucket.com/albums/j437/kevsfr/null-14.jpg)
They are made by Depo and the foglamp bulb is easily changed as posted earlier in this thread.
Not fitted them yet to see about the reverse lamp.
Look very good quality and for £239 delivered I'm extremely pleased.
-
Yep same one i got, they are very good quality, but there is no real way of sorting the reverse light as the red plastic is molded in....
So what are your plans, just run it as a red reverse light?
Ive spoke to guy who said he will have Depo lights in that are RHD but wont be in the UK for eight weeks :angry:
-
Here's a pic of them fitted.
(http://i1085.photobucket.com/albums/j437/kevsfr/null-15.jpg)
Ordered a red bulb for the fog lamp but as you say the reverse is more difficult.
There is somewhere for a bulb holder to go in but its getting the old one out without breaking anything.
I'm not too bothered and very happy with them.

The inner LEDs look brighter than the outers, is that a trick of the photo?
-
In the flesh they're all the same brightness, I put it down to the sun shining in the garage making the outers look less bright.
-
Just ordered one if these
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00967V7BO
As my lights have a position for a bulb holder and I know which wires are for reverse I'm sure I'll be able to sort this.

Have you had the light apart m8, it looks like it maybe a
Soldered in led instead of a bulb? Would love to hear how
You fix it.

Your right it does, but i think it involves breaking the seal of the light so you can removed the plastic soldered one.

I'm pretty sure it does. I doubt it would get picked up on anMOT as its not something they will be loooking for :smiley:

Reverse lamp not a legal requirement so not part of MOT

You beat me to it mate.
Yeah as an mot tester I knew it wasn't part of the test.

Reason I ask is I might have to get a new set as some kind person crashed into the back of me and the insurance company (not mine the person that hit me) are being arses about paying out :angry:

I'm still waiting on the bulb holder to arrive.
Amazon said 3 weeks delivery so hopefully the end of the week.
I read about your damage mate.
The system doesn't work for the innocent does it?

Cheers Marshy, let us know how you get on.
The system certainly doesn't work for the inncoent, the first time I have ever had to claim and I'm being messed about when all these people are putting in fake whiplash claims etc :angry: :angry:

Wheres the best place to get the Hella ones? This changing globe malarky has put me off the eBay ones.

A little awkward to fit but works perfectly.

can you post link and instruction for doing it as i will have to do it eventually
Thanks

This is the bulb holder I ordered
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B00967V7BO
Although its taken nearly 4 weeks to arrive.
I used the original fog lamp bulb which came with the lights.
I then checked the wiring to find which wire was live etc.
in the plug that goes to the orange resister block the green is live and white is earth.
I then looked at the rear of the lamp and where the led is there's a lamp reflector, I didn't split the lamp I just levered that up at one side to break it off, once I'd done that I filed it away to make it smooth and so It doesn't foul the new bulb holder.
Once enough clearance was there I fitted the bulb holder and chopped the wire going to the red led.
I then connected my new bulb holder to the connector which used to run to the orange resister.
Bingo that was it.
Took 20 mins to do.
I was in two minds about having to break the reflector part but there's no other way to do it. Once filed it looks like its alway been like that, although its not visible from outside anyway.
-
Very nice write up Marshy, I feel better about gently snapping the existing one. Gonna order one tonight.

Cheers marshy, wee job for the weekend :)

Need Help, got mine today, but no idea how you got the old bulb out and new bulb holder in, contact me when you get this please

all sorted now, reverse light is white and fog is red and works - Not bad in total, DEPO LEDs = £295, red bulb = £5, Holder £3
£303 all in :smiley:

im still waiting on a bulb holder to put this mod to bed, ross is it easy to break out the red bit of plastic inside the light? and did u snip the wire directly at the led?
cheers

Marshy said it was easy, i didnt find it all that easy. Its not thats its hard, you just have to go nice and easy. I used a flathead screwdriver and just levered it back and forth till it cracked and snapped in small pieces. Then pull all the broken bits out through the hole. It feels like your gonna break it.
Once its all out, i just connect the wires to the end of the resistor wires (gold bit with red wires) pushed into the connectors so it had full contact with the plates and then just hot glue gunned it in place. Tested and all working sweet.
Glad i had the balls to do it, as i was thinking i would have to keeping swapping lights over for MOT. Any problems just give us a shout.

spoke to the seller, apparently the RHD version are STILL 2 months away from being in stock. looks to me like they're full of it.
they were reluctant to sell me the units, insisting they couldn't be modified. anyone in the north west willing to give me a hand when they arrive?

Honestly they arnt too difficult, only you are super heavy handed you wont damage them.I would order the adapter 3 weeks before you want to install though. Im in Bradford, fair bit away from you. :sad:

The Depo ones I ordered from Romania only cost me £229 plus £3 for the adaptor and £5 for the red bulb.
Total £237

Guys has anyone tried the LED rear lights from car systems in Poland? I have just purchased a set of RHD r-line lights today and all they said is they need coding with a vagcom. Thanks

they need coding, adapters and (depending on the year of your car) a new lighting module.
-
Have you had these pryda? My car is 2009 gti I called them today and all the guy said was they just need vagcom coding. What adapters and light module would be required? Should they not supply these with the lights? Cheers
-

I got mine from Car Systems as well. The kit should come with the adapters.
-
Poached did you need to code the lights? Have you got any pictures? Thanks
-
I don't have these lights, but as said I think the lights from Car Systems come with kufatec adapters.
iirc, pre-2010 models require a lighting module as well as coding

-
What does that lighting module do? I'm booking it in with my mechanic to have them fitted and coded at the same time but I don't want to find when he is finished they need the module and get charged twice. Do you think I should just order? Poached what year is your car and did you need the lighting module? Cheers
-
Poached did you need to code the lights? Have you got any pictures? Thanks
I didn't need a new module, just coding but mines a 59 plate.
I could send a phone pic but it would look no different to a Google image of the lights.
Some info that may help on the BCM Module here:

Mines a 2009 model and didn't need a new body module controller.

I will let you know how I get on. Thanks guys

Hi guys i am trying to code my new car systems r20 rear lights on the vcds. I just wanted to know what area on the vcds you need to go into to select the new rear lights and erase the bulb out warning on the dash. Thanks
-
Guys changed byte 18 to 04. But still getting bulb out light. Any ideas do I need the bcm module? Thanks
-
What's the software and hardware versions of your BCM.
-
I don't know how do I check that? Cheers
-
The fault on the dash states 'check rear right fog light' no other faults.
-
are they LHD lights?
-
Hi they were sold to me by Car systems pl as RHD lights.
-
Which side lights up when you turn the rear fog light on?
-
The drivers side lights up when the fog light is on. The guy at car systems seems to think I need a bcm module which he has told me to take to vw and have fitted n coded or it might just need more coding. Any ideas guys?
