The linked article in the first post of this discussion thread over on the mk10 forum board might be of interest;J_hutchison wrote: Sun Feb 21, 2021 10:16 pm Looking to see if anyone can link me some w5w led lamps. That are canbus error free without fitting in line resistors? Dont fancy messing about with them. Tried a couple led lamps but threw up error codes.
Want to get good leds on that part do the car as I'm planning to get some 3d gel plates.
Might just try find a couple nice looking halogens then. Dont want to start messing about with resistors and the wiring.heftyshooly wrote: Mon Feb 22, 2021 8:13 am The car expects an incandescent bulb, which draws a lot more current than an LED. There are two ways to get around this, you either make the LED draw more current (by adding a resistor, very dangerous if done incorrectly), or you change the type of load of that lamp in the BCM configurations.
For the latter you need something like VCDS.
Are either of the links below the right thing? Error free and right size?peter_dk25 wrote: Sun Feb 28, 2021 8:19 am Why not just buy 2 OEM LED: 1K8943021D works without any problems....
None of them are OEM. These will fit your Polo:J_hutchison wrote: Mon Mar 01, 2021 9:03 pmAre either of the links below the right thing? Error free and right size?peter_dk25 wrote: Sun Feb 28, 2021 8:19 am Why not just buy 2 OEM LED: 1K8943021D works without any problems....

Thanks, so even though they dont say for polo they are still going to fit and not cause any errors? as it doesn't say anything about having resistors etc so its expensive at 14 quid each and doesnt seem to have anything to prevent canbus errorspeter_dk25 wrote: Tue Mar 02, 2021 6:30 amNone of them are OEM.

Works and fits perfect without any problems...
