Thank for answering mart!n and ciclo :D
About the light switch, is this will be good?

The Auto function won't work on the Polo, because there is much more required for it to work than just the lightswitch. So it wouldn't make sense to buy that one.

But other that that it will work for the functions you need. :) But I woul find one wthout the AUTO. :)
iGold wrote:Mart!n, on the link you posted here there is 2 versions (or options) on the site:
"without cornering" or "with cornering light". What is the differences? What should I choose?
You should pick the one without conering light. It's a much more difficult and expensive process to get conering lights to work. Would require a new BCM which will set you back a few hundred quit...

What coding I need to do? I have no idea in VAG-COM and dont have any tools for that..
Is coding is really required?

You say it just plug&play?
Just for be sure, fix me if I am wrong:
1. assemble the fog lights in the bumper
2. plug the wires to the fog lamps
3. plug one connector to fuse 54, the other side to pin 8 on the switch light
And then fog lamps should work?

By the way, my Polo is trendline. So I am pretty sure that I have the most basic BCM.

Greeting, iGold.
There is no coding involved... Must be for the cornering lights. But again that is an expensive option to get those to work.

Hello,

Do you know if these instructions will work also with 6C model?
I have factory DLR on my 6C but no fog lights.

Hello mates, I'm posting you from Mexico. I'm trying to retrofit rear fog light to my 2014 6R GTI, It has both tail lights as reverse lights. I already installed the headlight switch which has 2 steps for front/rear fog lights, even though my connector does not have a wire in cavity 9 (I know this is for rear fog lights).

My question is: Does the rear fog light is activated by BCM? I have made a quick test by taking off each one of the bulbs in the left tail lamp, all except the reverse light set on a MIL in the dash.

Does anyone have a wiring diagram of your rear fog/reverse lights ? :D

Thanks in advance
