Does anyone know how to wire the pass side to be the rear fog? I live in England and it has to be the Right side... I currently have it wired up for the drivers(left) side..
Thanks

I'm in Korea right now, but my car is in the UK and I will be trying to figure this out next month while i'm home for midtour. Not sure how far I'll get without VAG-COM, but we'll see. I know another guy there that might be able to help figure out it too. Right now, I have the wonderful light that hangs from under the bumper. :barf:
Yea thats what I'm trying not to do...
If you look at my thread

It has a link to a list of the CECM pins. It looks like C28 is the right reverse light. If you disconnect the wire coming from the right reverse light at the C28 plug, you can tap into it. You'll still need Vagcom to enable the rear fog to get rid of the bulb error.
If you are worried about them drilling a hole into the underside of your bumper, don't worry....they will use an existing hole. My wife had mine done at Coopers in Mildenhall Village....the are Mini specialists, but do lights conversions for US Spec cars. I was worried about them drilling a hole, but I called them up and they explained. So for the time being, it might be what you gotta do until we can figure this out.
Valeoray - I've got a pin listing and the wire I can't seem to find is the "Right reversing bulb" I know for putting a fog light in NA (left side of car), you move the wire from the black CECM connector (A28 - LEFT Reversing bulb -M16-) to the brown connector (C47 - Rear LEFT fog light bulb -L46-). I need to figure out which wire to move to the brown connector (C28 - Rear RIGHT fog light bulb -L47-). If you have any idea of which wire to move for the right, that would help a ton.
ONLYNAVW and Eat_My_Shorts I get to England on my midtour in just under a month. Within the first few days there I will be going to Bury St. Edmunds Northgate VW to get the needed trigger wire (movers lost my first one) and I am going to try and get a copy of the euro spec wiring diagram and see if I can figure it out and also ask the guys there if they can help. So hopefully I can figure something out.
Let me know what you figure out. If this works.....it will save a TON of time and research and many other GTI lovers coming to the UK will really appreciate it....if it doesn't, we may have to put our heads together and figure it out.
I've got a repair wire coming in the mail...ordered it from ecs. But I'm gonna have to go to Northgate anyway...need to see about updating my GPS maps to UK. Theres 100 quid I don't really want to spend....but oh well.
Do you have or know anyone that has VAG-COM?

Depending on which radio you have... you wont be able to get the GPS maps for the UK if you have the 315 you CAN NOT!!! they are updated by SD disk and it wont work... I've talked to the dealership on several times trying to get it.
