The footwell lights do look much better in red! However the oems are not bulbs and the fittings won't take bulbs. You may be able to exchange the led inside for a red led or buy ones like mine which are the complete unit or you can buy oem bulb holders and fit led replacement bulbs.
I've just realised I'm reading the Mk7 forum and I have a Mk6! I think the Mk6 can take bulbs if you buy the right canbus-safe ones.

I keep looking at these, I think they look quite good in the dark but I don't really wish to take the door cards off the 7.5 to get to the wiring behind

I thought you could get some that ran off batteries but I think I might have made that up. Sure there were some on eBay.

Can you get the footrest cover from superskoda for dsg?

Mine will be removed sometime in May if you want a bargain and can wait!

They are actually narrower than the standard black plastic DSG one as meant for manual cars. So, no they aren't technically the same.

I'm about to pull the trigger on one of these... https://youtu.be/xDoLCesp4Oc

Link to eBay:
https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/153855364906

£9 - gives me something to do I suppose.

So I am am stuck in Angola until they lift their state of emergency and I can hopefully get home, if there are any flights.
Totally loving this thread, I have bought 2 of these (wife has a Q2)

So keep the ideas coming
