Would be helpful too if you could post a link to the posts your talking about so folks can have a quick reference.



What color are the rear fogs? The Euro switch isnt expensive, is soldering of wires involved here? Just curious.

Why? I will only have to go doing the same search other people will have to and therefore do their work for them. I don't have them memorised.

In the process of finding them people can also learn along the way - the way most people have. (kind of kidding - I should really use the subscribe feature more or bookmark posts)



The rear fog light is a bright red led light - it should be mandatory worldwide! Aids visibility for cars behind to see you better in foggy and low visibility conditions.

No soldering required - the wires just click in.

Getting the wires out of the CECMs are a pain in the ass. And its very awkward working down there. Need to cut some of the wiring black tape back to get room to swap the wires.



Anyway, here you go.

The wiring to be done for the rear fog. I'm sure there are other threads with pictures etc. Here is a good one

1. install trigger wire from euro switch pin #7 to black cecm pin# 17
   
2. move wire from black cecm pin #28 to brown cecm pin #47
   
3. move wire from brown cecm pin #47 to black cecm pin #28
   
4. vagcom coding under 09 central electronics, byte 18, change to either "04" or "21" (for bi-xenon fronts) or "15" (for halogen fronts)
   

For the front parking lights you need another trigger wire installed from euro switch pin #3 to black cecm pin #19.

When the dark cherries are back in stock at the end of the month will they still be the same price as during the group buy? If so I'll be purchasing right away!

Edit: I can't spell.

Option 1 is OEM Dark Cherry. OEM came in two colors, Cherry and Dark Cherry. Depo on only has Dark Cherry.

Yes, the price is what it states. Ill update the thread once they are back in. They are set for the 22nd.

Dark cherry is like the Golf R taillights colour.
The other options (black cherry and smoked) are just custom aftermarket looking ones based on these.
Red Cherry is like the Golf GTI/GTD colour.

Ok that makes things more clear so i have gti so there for i have cherry red. and the golf r has dark cherry..

Not really.
You have a US Golf GTI - therefore (it should be that) you have standard (tinted) halogen rear lights. The GTI and R have the same here.
In Europe (and elsewhere) the LEDs taillights are offered by VW per above - and as options.

Just curious who else here ordered Dose's Cherry Reds while he had them? If fedex gets their act together I'll have mine in by this weekend and will try to get some pics up.
