Well, this time tomorrow (Thursday) I expect to be telling you that my LED rear clusters are fitted and working perfectly following an easy installation.

....Weather permitting :cool:.

Meanwhile here's a pic of someone else's red one with LED rears. I'll see if I can find you a silver one, Hurdy.

when I saw that pic you posted of the grey one I thought they looked cool, but on a red car they look a bit chav!

....Thanks! :smiley: Mine is a 5-door Tornado Red Mk5 GTI :cool:

I think rear lights only look chav when the surrounds are bright reflective silver, but these LED's are the other way round. Do you think they look chavvy on a Passat?

My Milltek quads probably look chavvy to some people too :grin:

maybe its perhaps as they look non OEM to the trained eye, that then leads it to perhaps look a bit chav, as its an obvious mod....prob look better in the flesh!

.... :smiley: Don't worry, we all like different things. I can see that in certain lights and from certain angles these LED's can look bling. But in the context of the whole car in the 'flesh' I'm confident they'll look fine. We don't know for certain but it's very likely that these rear LED clusters will appear on VW's production line for 09 builds for Europe, but probably not for the UK. The whole VW range has been getting updated lighting technology for months.
