OEM VW LED Number Plate lights

Post by AJ_7 »

I want some of these for my 2011 SEL Polo, is it as simple as swapping the units over? Will there be any bulb out light warnings?

Any help would be appreciated.

I would also love some of this. Would like to know if they are a straight swap like you said.

Can confirm there a straight swap. Possible bulb warning light though.

I've got a set if OEM ones installed. They make it look much more classier! It won't throw a bulb out warning as the numberplate lights aren't part of the Canbus system. :D

Numberplate lights are linked to the bulb warning light they just both need to be inop at the same time for it to come on

Got them from VW direct - I think they were £25 each, I remember reading somewhere that Porsche use the exact same ones and they can be had for around £15 each. Here's the ones you need - http://www.kufatec.co.uk/shop/en/Volksw ... K8943021C-
