Hi, hope you don't mind me asking, but I fancy some LEDs for my MK7

Where did you get yours from? Were they easy to fit? and finally were they expensive.

Regards,

Paul

EBay is best for LEDs, search led side marker lights, what style are you after?

I have round button ones in my bumper as the longer 6 led ons I had kept breaking wires.

There reasonably cheap and very easy to fit, bit of drilling, bit of soldering wires and heatshrink.

Fitting is easy depending on how you want them to operate, on with side light, on a switch ect.

Have you put more on since I saw it N :?: Looks like flippin Blackpool illuminations 8)

Yeah, the ones I had were ebay too, but like Ned says, the longer ones have a tendency to break wires :? Might swap them out for some of the button ones I bought yonks ago.

Still haven't got around fitting the back ones :roll:

Forgot to say that I just took delivery of another back corner bumper :roll:

Managed to gently tap a street lamp the other weekend, checked it out and no damage, but when I got to where I was going the fecker had fallen off :roll:

At least it was my fault this time, not the pikeys stealing it when it was parked in the services :evil:

No they were fitted just not wired in as I removed the halo spots to make some brackets, they are still half make in the shed :oops: think I got 20 button ones for about 6 sovs, the ones in the step came in handy t'other week getting in the van in the pitch black.

I have a spare drivers side upper bumper corner if you need one, proper tailgate one as well.

Did injector seals again today but think its the rocker cover seals that are the problem need to do them again then sometime. More bolts and washers required now struggling to do the learns again as want it to be all sweet for going to NL for chrimbo but it's too cold outside and the intake temp is too low

Oh and my VCM is kaput so did it all with foreskin and a bit of elm.
Or there's something else happening as the computer can see the VCM as a device but forscan, IDS and the Bosch VCM manager can't see it

If the vcm2 is seen then it should work, have you done a full pc wipe and reload and changed the usb cable? Also pin reset the vcm.
