In the same boat as you!! Have had my GTI for nearly a month and have looked into bulbs, for foglights. In my last car(Leon FR+) I changed all interior bulbs, number plate and fogs to LED. These were all bought from Amazon, and only had issues with 1 set, which were replaced free. Before I traded it in, I removed most of them and will see what ones are going to fit in the Polo.
The foglight bulbs are different, so have looked at what is available, but still can't make up my mind, as to go with LED or something like Osrams??
When you get some, put some pics up and I will do the same, to see what's better?

Cheers.

This is the item I purchased https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1x-Bulb-Reve ... 3641202196

Fairly easy to replace with a youtube tutorial and error-code free.

The internal LEDs were order from Aliexpress for buttons and also work without error.
