I was able to run a wire hanger (Joan Crawford be damned) up the inside of the quarter panel, same as the wiring harness, and fish the wires through. Took a little more effort but I didn't have to make any cuts in my grommets or have the wires exposed inside the tailgate. Thanks for the video!

No problems, they just plug straight into the standard adapters. All the wiring and coding has been done already 👍🏽

[@PoweredByPetrol1]

@@dirk691 Just remain calm, and triple check what you’re doing if you’re unsure. You can use WD-40 on the plugs to slide them into each other, or use pliers to bring them together. Match the colours up, and then make sure you secure them to the car tightly and that the sponge seals are tight, otherwise you’ll get condensation

I personally don't like the look of the LED lights, I prefer the stock ones and I really wish that there were some out there which are tinted to a similar extent as these LED. The only legal ones I'd say you can get are original R32 since, but they are quite expensive at like 350 from what I've seen. I have a white 07 GTI and I'm going for a black and white, these would look nice since they're tinted, but I as stated above not much a fan of the LED look.

[@PoweredByPetrol1]

These lights adhere to the UK guidelines as they’re designed to be highly visible even with the very dark tints. The dark tints I wasn’t a fan of before but now they’re growing on me, highlights the Wheels a little more which I like. Check out Golf Skyline Mod on Instagram and Facebook, you might like their tailights, and they can be custom made.

[@GoodOlTazzy]

@@PoweredByPetrol1 Yeah, I'm from Austria and we get the same one you used in the video here too. But nothing else because for us tinted lights are illegal unless like you've said they were made specifically to be follow the rules. That's why I mentioned the R32, those are slightly tinted and look pretty good. Although I might someday get the ones you have to try them out.
