Email off dealer today saying the performance pack will be an extra £800 for the semi slick tyres
 Said I don’t want the tyres anyway
 Can not order the performance pack with out them
 Answer you want to loose a sale in excess of 55k over a set of tyres. Fine by me
 Will be on the telephone to Vw uk in the morning
That puts the performance pack at £4500

I've checked the configurator and £3675 includes the tyres. I think the confusion lies as you can order the tyres seperately for which the cost is £880.

Interesting. Like the idea of the plate even if it is a bit of a UK afterthought. Who told you this?

Looking back I bought a generic brand one off eBay for my boot in 2019 for £3.95, seller not around anyone, but it’s still working fine and no errors.
I would just buy one and cross your fingers, it’s so low voltage unlikely to cause issues.

Has anyone swapped their boot light for an LED one that they are happy with? Be grateful for a link. A lot.of mixed reviews on Amazon.
