2006 my Polo rear lamps do they fit earlier 9n Polo

Post by M15RPD84 »

As the title suggests do these rear lamps fit. I have a 2005 GT and wish to change the rear lamps. Thanks in advance Rob,

You mean rear lights ?.

Everything from a 9n3 is inter changeable to a 9n and vise versa :-).

I thought that I had read that mechanically they will fit, but some messing around with the wiring is required, ie some wires need swopped on from one position to the other etc. Sounds a bit crazy I know, but remember VW have a strange sense of humour!

Yes indeed you need to re-wire the adapter that plugs into the rear light. Mechanically, they are a straight flush fit (I have done it on mine), but as I am not an electrics expert I commissioned Ash (User on here as K.I.T.T.) to make me a set of wiring adapters which are great value which are plug and play so it is as simple as plugging the adapter into the new lights and you're away.

Hope this helps! (I put 2006-->) lights into my 2003 52 plate.
