i like that- wats wrong wiv havin the brake light on it aswell? blind all the bastards behind u!
i bought mine from ebay for £30 but i aint seen em about since- you could go VW but they might rip you off.
You could also try sprayin the light black or sumit? or maybe makin it clear? but i dunno how this could be done.

i dont know, but wont the spoiler cover up the brake light on the hatch when fitted? or just disconnect the standard light and connect the new one

there is an additional light in the spoiler itself... wouldnt u need to wire it in to the original lighting circuit? so would i need to take the old one out?

hi laura,
i dont think that you would need to take out the original brake light,i dont know how the spoiler is fitted but usually have to drill holes into boot to fix on to, if this is the case you would just have to drill another hole for the wiring to connect to your original brake light :)

damn the user ended the bidding early otherwise i would of taken that spoiler off you if you had won and given you a 6n2 one without a 3rd brake light on it as i'm not a ebay user.

well if you had agreed too.
