Installing right now.

Looks sweet! I plan to do the exact same thing to my car. Was it plug and play or did you have to buy adapter cables to avoid the car throwing fault codes all over the place? If so I would be very interested in part numbers. Thanks!

You need adaptor cables and you will need VAG-COM or the dongle from Kufatec. You have all the info you'll need in this thread, including VW part numbers. Just be aware of that it will not work if you have a right-hand drive car.

If you use the RHD Golf R tail lights, I can't see why not?

VW doesn't seems to have the adaptor cables for any Golf car and Kufatec only supplies them for left-hand drive, at least so far.

Do you have a part number on the adaptor cables from VW?
