LED Reverse Light?
« on: 25 February 2011, 18:22 »
Has anyone found that the reverse light on the MK5 golf is very dim? is there an LED bulb that can be put in its place instead to improve light output?

+1, Utter rubbish.  Reversing lights this dim and one sided should be illegal.

Do you guys reckon this could work? Not sure if it will trigger an error on the dash.

I think they would give an error, and I don't think you'd get much more light output either
