Try Newbolds in Mansfield. They did well.

lol 30mins from mine. Products are prolly fine but service wise stay away.

@jdjd: Thanks for the heads up. They take eons to answer emails, which is exceedingly frustrating! I live miles away, so won't be any need to go back.

Could somebody far more knowledgable than me confim whether the tailight connectors advertised below would be suitable?

They also have an LED tailight coding dongle advertised... haven't heard of this being mentioned before :huh:

Those look right.

The coding dongle is a bit of kit that you connect in to the car and all is does is code the same thing as if you did it manually with VCDS. It has only one purpose and only one use. Once coded, you can remove it.

Good stuff, they do look the same.  Oh right got, like a USB key that downloads the required data to the car... has anybody used one?  Having read about the issues people were having coding the lights manually with VCDS I'm suprised I haven't come across this solution before, which on the face of it seems very simple (at a price)...?

This is the sort of thing - http://goo.gl/3tV5M - available from Kufatec.

Shame they don't offer a refund of €20 if you send it back to them, undamaged, as I hate waste!

So no issues with RHD/LHD etc they're just the same?  Assume Euro cars have a foglight unlike the US version :S Although according to the Kufatec ones they aren't suitable for RHD... grrr!
