What part or parts did you use and how did you do this mod? I am constantly hitting the wrong button for the damn interior light on my 2018 S or completely missing it at night. My 2015 TDI is no issue at all you push the actual light and it goes on, not the tiny stupid button.
PN# 5G1-947-105 is the part number for the backlit overhead assembly for car's with the sunroof. I unfortunately don't have the part number for the version without a sunroof switch.

Oh ok. Thanks. I have an S Base model so no sunroof. Will have to look into this.

So you just replace the cover Or is it more complicated?

^^^Just replace the entire unit. Install takes about 10 minutes depending on how carefully you unclip everything.

With or without BSM? Just the housings?

I’d get them from e-acca.com. I bought BSM housings, aspherical BSM glass, door switch, door panel clips from them. $460 USD shipped (Aug 2017).

See post below from user Vert1go749


Heh, I feel guilty for making more people aware of this.

Part # for sunroof: 5G1-947-105-R-WHI
Part # for non-sunroof: 5G1-947-105-Q-WHI

I got mine from VWDirectAutoParts.com but if you search the part # you should be able to compare current pricing.

Also, here's the the post that I used as a guide. Just need steps 3-6.
