VW Golf MK7 (5G) interior ambient light installation (part 2)

[@carbongecko]

Thank you for posting this. I can't wait for part three

[@mrfixpl]

Will post my progress later this week.

[@yassa1559]

very good i thinks to do the same , in the door handle too and the storage comportement in the door 👍🏼👍🏼

[@mrfixpl]

Good luck! I would like to retrofit LED strip as well but right now I don’t have enough time and space to disassemble the decorative trim.

[@yassa1559]

@@mrfixpl good luck too, yes it's very tricky to dismount the decorative trim

[@mrfixpl]

If only I had a garage I would do it. But currently I don't have a safe space to work on such time consuming mods. Maybe spring/summer 2021.

Nice work! 👌

When Covid is over you come to Portugal to modify mine 🙂 we make a trade, vacations by Golf mods 😉

Hi. Can I install golf/passat ambient light and module onto polo aw ? Since its also based on the mqb platform. Will it work?

[@t.t.6805]

can u tell me the connection about the door handle led? thank u

[@noz3m]

Is it possible to do the ambient lighting yourself with the leds mentioned in your previous video? Like use the orginal locations (under doorhandle e.t.c) and wire it to terminal58? to have it dimmed and used as ambient lighting? Or maybe wire the leds to the switch of the window switch? for power and dimming?

[@carlosb68]

Nice work. And the ambient light? Why don’t you list the components you use?

[@mrfixpl]

Hi! I don't want to list parts before this is done and I can confirm it all works as I expect it to.

[@carlosb68]

@@mrfixpl are interesting this leds

[@carlosb68]

@@mrfixpl can we tell about this in a forum? I made some modifications for share with you if you want in the rear doors

[@mrfixpl]

@@carlosb68 I checked a lot of LEDs and couldn't find ones with correct color. Too warm, too cold, too blue... Finally I took apart headlight from an Audi Q7 and used DRL LEDs that were installed there. I have only few pieces left so I'm still looking for perfect LEDs that I can just buy.

[@mrfixpl]

I will be happy to see what've you done to your car! Send me a link or find my on facebook.

[@luiginapolitano4775]

nice work, TOP 💪. about the ambient light, will you also install the LED fiber along the panel? (as in the front doors of part 1)

[@mrfixpl]

I'm planning to, but year 2020 is not taking my plans seriously 😉

[@luiginapolitano4775]

@@mrfixpl great ... where will you connect the led fiber? I would like to do it too

[@mrfixpl]

@@luiginapolitano4775 I was planning to wire it to the front door control module so all ambient elements are controlled via Infotainment.

[@luiginapolitano4775]

@@mrfixpl yes so should you do. the problem is that the wiring is not there. so this has to go from the bcm to the rear port connector

[@mrfixpl]

@@luiginapolitano4775 well, there's wiring from the front door module to the ambient elements (4-pin connector). I'm planning to connect over there.

Hello, Can I turn around the wires on an MK7 Golf steering wheel aswel (Like Polo AW), this to create red backlighting on the buttons for retro fit in golf 6. Would love it if you knew the answer.

[@una.nimous]

Hello, can you please tell me on wich pins(connector doormodule) you put the door puddle/courtesy lights? I have orderd these lights but can't find an instruction any where. Thank you, and keep up the good work 👍🏻

[@nuno_cunha]

Hi, great work. Love your videos. Where do you connect the rear warning lights? Do you have the correct pinout to the door module? Do the LEDS stay lightly lit when OFF? Thanks

[@mrfixpl]

Still waiting for installation. Just received required connectors the other day.

[@MrEldinho7]

Hello, on master switch, can i use pin 10 and 3 for ambient light? 🖐️

[@ferrets6]

So, to install warning lights on rear door I have to cut out some plastic from the panel...? :O

[@mrfixpl]

That's really my fault. I bought lights that were fitted originally in Passat B8 assuming that it will also fit Golf MK7. There are some aftermarket lights with different shape (and brighter LEDs) that don't require any modification to the door card.

[@hainalandras1514]

@@mrfixpl how did you wire the rear door exit lights? As I saw on my car (12.2014 Golf 7) I don’t have option to program it.

Super kanał👍! Naprawdę doceniam Twój zapał i profesjonalizm. Tylko jedna rada, bo często słucham i razi mnie to bardzo: "As you can see" a NIE "As can you see" w zdaniu twierdzącym 😉

[@mrfixpl]

Dzięki za miłe słowo i za zwrócenie uwagi! Postaram się wyrobić sobie nawyk poprawnego zwrotu.

What are the pin Numbers for the door warning light?

[@DOMsowier]

Witaj, mam dwa pytania : Z czego dałeś ten LED pod nogi + czerwony odblask ? Kupiłem chińczyka i niestety za mocny LED i czerwone wyglada jak róż. ;) Dwa co za diodę wstawiłeś pod klamkę ? Tak by przypominał natężeniem przód ? Dzięki za info :)

[@raresvintea1]

Hello, it is correct, 60kOhm, or 6kOhm?

[@claytoncamilleri]

Can you give me the Adaptations, I found some online but they are incomplete.

[@mrfixpl]

As soon as I receive missing wiring connectors, I'm going to complete this mod with coding/adaptation values required to make it all work.

[@dronowicz]

Czy możesz podać wymiary tej diody oraz czy 4000k pasuje do fabrycznego odcienia ?

With what you will code ???
