@VWhitehawk
Where did you buy them from and for how much may I ask? Did you install it yourself or have someone do it for you?
I got a 2010 GTI in black but every time I see another golf with rear LEDs it makes me want to upgrade mine!

I got them off the original owner of the car, they are official vw ones, cost me £450. And installed them myself it's a simple job, then just took them to my local VAG specialist and £20 cash took the fault code off.

We'll worth it!

I think this is a great mod, and providing that you buy them at the right price, ultimately is free. There will always be someone who will want to buy them when you sell the car. Providing you have kept your cherry red rears to refit.
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

I always keep the standard / original parts to put back on the car to then try and make some money back on the mods. But I think I will be keeping this for a while, I can't fault it!

The LED xenons are they easy enough to fit, and guessing will just need another decoding?

I love those LED rear lights. I've got to get some of those!! I want the "normal" ones though, not the "smoked". Although they look pretty cool too!

They make the car look really up to date!!

I like the bike rack too...lol!! :cool:

Regards,

Mart

When I bought my GTI the xenons and LED rear lights were on my list too but unfortunately the one I found and eventually bought only had the xenons so I'm still on the hunt for some decent but cheap LED rear lights.

It's carbon grey so I'd be after the smoked ones because I think they suit the car more than the clear but the clear ones look better on the white. If I was into biking I would probably consider a bike rack, it still looks like a beast haha.

If anybody has any or knows of a good place to get some feel free to give me a shout  :)
