Hi All,
Just a small update this time. My local dealer had 2 of the new passats on display at the weekend. They were lhd, on german plates and full spec. I noticed they had led door warning lights so it would be rude not to fit them :grin: I paid €20 ex vat each. This light will also fit mk5 and mk6 and any other car with the same shape dummy reflector in the door card. Note the LED light does not fit the front doors on 5 door Golfs as the door card is a different shape. You can make it fit but this involves chopping a lot of material off the plug.
LED light on the left and standard filement bulb light on the right.
Standard light below. Note how yellow it looks compared to the led light visible from under the wing mirror.
The led light has a little diffuser to spread the light evenly. There are 2 leds inside it.
And the light installed. Light output is similar to the regular bulb version but the light is better spread and more even. It's also a light whiter.
