MK6 rear light issue

Postby Shitlaptop » Tue May 24, 2016 12:08 pm

Just had towbar fitted and wired up...in the process we have found the black plug that pushes onto bulb holder ,the terminals in the plug have corroded.

Is there a way to replace terminals (ebay kit maybe) or is simply chopping plug off and reattaching a better condition plug the best option.

Please don't all start shouting at once...ive had a search. :lol:

Chop off and replace, or some have directly soldered on to the bulb holder.

Thanks...thinking solder direct to bulb holder might be way forward.
