Reverse light
« on: 18 May 2015, 12:12 »
Has anyone here done any kind of upgrade to the standard reverse light on a mk6 gtd. The light on mine is pathetic, I find I either need to put rear fog on or reverse with my foot lightly on the brakes just to see where I'm going! I'm not up for the hassle of fitting sensors or a camera unless it's very easy to do. (Although the camera would go nicely with the rns510 I've just ordered)
Thanks, Phil.

Ask Mattyj on here. It's a while ago now but I'm sure he had the same issues and was looking at trying to upgrade it.
