if i get the oem LEDs what will they do if i just plug them in... will they function at all?
when youre sober reformulate the ?
They work.
Just, they'll be really odd. When I got mine in, I could drive around with them, but you wont have ambers, the signals will be blinking form the wrong LEDs, etc.
I had to drive around with them like that for a day, not long, because I was waiting for my buddy with VAG-COM.
That being said, I had another buddy's who's LEDs kept turning off at night, even when the lights were on when they weren't wired and vagged properly, so i'm not sure really.
was hoping someone who knew what they were talking about chimed in :thumbsup:
You think u could link me to a good DIY you know of iv been looking but cant find anything yet...
besides VAG-COM u need to splice wires right?
i can walk you through it if you need me to. I just finished wiring mine in. When in plugged them in before i wired it up, they would work normally until i started moving. then the running lights would turn off. (found out after i got pulled over for no taillights)
HAHA i will definitely let you know if i need the help if i end up going with them...
have a pic of urs / do u like them?
So hot. I think that will be my next mod.
Has anyone yanked out the rear fog? Is it very difficult to get out and all back together while keeping the light looking nice? Can I buy just the left hatch light without the fog from somewhere?
i got the lens for the rear fog out. Wasnt easy. i wedged 3 hunting knives behind the taps to pop it out. pretty dangerous way to do it
Hah damn, and you didn't crack the lens? Is the red fog lens attached to anything in there? Is the normal clear reverse lens behind it when you take it out?
Hmm, I'm sure it would make more sense holding it, but are there any pics/diys anywhere showing how to get it out?
