How to: - Retro Fit Golf Mk6 R LED Taillights

[SteveP]

It will be fine to use VCDS. If your car already has LED xenon's then it will support LED taillights.

Thanks for the reassurance. Ya.. my GTI came with LED headlights and i thought there weren't gonna be errors after installing the Golf R tails. Guess i was wrong!  

Edit: Even though with stock LED Xenons it didnt support the R Tail lights. I haven't tried VCDS yet. I'm waiting to see if someone in the same build year as mine has tried recoding to get rid the errors.

Here's how I changed my stock Taillights for the R tinted LED Taillights  

This was completed on a 09 Model UK spec car

Steve,
A couple of Q's
The video above was that with Right hand drive lamps fitted as you seem to have the reversing light on the drivers side  ?

The part numbers last letter seem to have changed for some reason when i enquired.

5K0 945 093 Q (Inner Light)
5K0 945 094 Q (Inner Light)
5K0 945 095 Q (Outer Light)
5K0 945 096 Q (Outer Light)

[SteveP]

The video shows left hand drive lights.

The current part numbers are : -

1x 5K0 945 093 Q (Left Outer Light) @ £121.75
1x 5K0 945 094 Q (Right Outer Light) @ £121.75

Thanks. That had me wondering about the video.
I was told AG is only for cars cars built after March 2011 and Q is for earlier cars.

[SteveP]

I have fitted AG's to earlier cars, couldn't see any difference 

[Snoopy]

Oh well its just what i was told. I got the Q versions anyway.

I also found a helpful step by step mechanical install video on YouTube from one of your customers.
Quite helpul i thought and maybe worth adding here too.
