I know the R32 doesnt have fog lights but since when do they have LED's?

....Since some German guys added them a few months ago. A few guys in America are now doing the same. Involves cutting metal and doing a lot of work though - There's a 'How To' on vortex I think.

I reckon that the Golf Mk6 might have them or even the last production Mk5 GTI/R32's built into the headlight. Will deffo want some as aftermarket fit if they do!

NOW THATS COOL !!!!!

I quite like it, but how would you do it??  Come on technicians

If both of them were on at the same time they would be great dimmers !

Or when they flicker left to right that would be a great way to say hello to my mates coming on the other side 

In another video iv seen the guy has a button where the ESP and Tyre Pressure buttons are, u see him press a button which lights up quite nicely and the car keeps both LED's On.

....Extremely helpful post, Manu 

"Jetzt muss die Schraube an der Scheinwerferreinigungsalage entfernt werden" - Like you say, pity it's in German but you can see it's loads of work anyway.

I think if i do get the R32 on order, this would have to be done...doesnt seem to expensive 199 euros for the LED's and possibly around £100 for labour? Dont think the local VW garage would be up for it thou? And why doesnt the R32 have fogs 

[synnea]

It does not have fog lights because on the R32 there are air intakes behind the grill where the fog lights are normally. Needed to help aspirate the mighty V6 engine. As the R32 comes with xenons there is no need for fogs even when it is foggy. The lack of fog lights really does not make much of a difference. So other than the 'look' of having fog lights its not much of an issue.

Bling-bling 

[Manu_R32]

Bling Bling...i quite like them and think they could be quite handy....dont think they would put it on other models S6, R8, new TT etc if it was just bling bling...must be there for a better reason  But ofcourse, each to their own 

[Hurdy]

You could just flick them on when going down the M1 at night and EVERYONE would pull over for you

Until you got caught by the rozzers :embarassed:
