Good upgrade over standard spec mk4 vents  :wink: real easy to fit just remove the lower trims and glovebox and run a loom along to the rear of the head light switch,i got my loom here http://www.creationsmotorsport.com/product-detail.php?pid=424 and its pretty much oem plug and play two wires to connect one to an earth point near headlight switch the other to your illumination wire from the headlight switch  :wink:

just needs tapping in either by soldering the loom  wire onto the existing wire or use https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=scotchlok&rlz=1C1GTPM_enGB501GB501&es_sm=122&tbm=isch&imgil=vYSS03e7SMMRLM%253A%253Bhttps%253A%252F%252Fencrypted-tbn2.gstatic.com%252Fimages%253Fq%253Dtbn%253AANd9GcSFwT5TTuf80K3HTbhmbcWljIjx3iiedBC2_m1-eg918D5VdswJ%253B400%253B400%253BcLLtiun_G1FulM%253Bhttp%25253A%25252F%25252Fsolutions.3m.co.uk%25252Fwps%25252Fportal%25252F3M%25252Fen_GB%25252FElectricalMkts%25252FElectricalSupplies%25252Fproducts%25252Fscotchlok-wire-connectors%25252F&source=iu&usg=__4t3fZKXCPNalOmCYgba3OHh-epU%3D&sa=X&ei=TxhmU9CjNMfL0AWyp4HgBQ&ved=0CFgQ9QEwAQ#facrc=_&imgrc=vYSS03e7SMMRLM%253A%3BcLLtiun_G1FulM%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fsolutions.3m.co.uk%252F3MContentRetrievalAPI%252FBlobServlet%253FassetId%253D1319223613898%2526assetType%253DMMM_Image%2526blobAttribute%253DImageFile%3Bhttp%253A%252F%252Fsolutions.3m.co.uk%252Fwps%252Fportal%252F3M%252Fen_GB%252FElectricalMkts%252FElectricalSupplies%252Fproducts%252Fscotchlok-wire-connectors%252F%3B400%3B400
one of these i don't rate them much from using a few but they will be okay for tapping into one wire or so and should be up to the job if fitted correctly
