The ecstuning ones and the dectane ones are pretty much identical to the ones I already have - with the 18odd LED's and a separate resistor box that you have to tuck into the bumper.

Whats different in the 2012 MK6 that it can take those LED bulbs without needing a resistor box?
Is it coding - or something else?

Thanks for the advice about photobucket,got a bit carried away with pics.The first pic is at VW Bolton before we took delivery.Incidently this week had the clip fitted on the exhaust/resinator to fix the whispy noise between 2000rpm and 3000rpm.Many thanks to this forum for making me aware that this problem can be sorted under warranty as dealer unsure till i showed him the forum right up.

Nice rear.... the light funnily enough looks crisp and white but with a blue tint?

It's convinced me to go and buy one.

I just need to figure out which ones to go for..... Dectane, ECS Tuning, Kufatec or the convert2xenon ones?

Mate,they look identical to the ones I got from convert2xeon except they are £10 cheaper.I can only say where I got mine from are a reputable company and for the extra £10 they cost,they do work and can be fitted by a novice like me in no time.

How long have you had these ones Andy? Have they been error free?

They been in since mid August.Error free.There is what they call a canbus which is a resistor module that stops any errors and comes with the lights.You just place it into bumper before putting led light in.
