It's an r32 conversion , plugged two sets of clocks in and both result in the warming lights acting strangely . E.g turn the headlights on the handbrake light flickers, just wondered if the loom was slightly different

They are different in year. You cant put early gti clocks in a late gti.

I had this problem with anni clocks in mine. Both 8v gti put mine was a 97.

Do you know what year the clocks are from? And what year is your car?

Obd1 and obd2 I guess.

What year are the clocks. You definitely want to get 97 clocks if you can.
