If you ever have to do this again you can access the lower T25 screw by pulling out the headlight washer. There’s a hole that allows direct access to it, add a long extension to your T25 and your able to get directly too it, can take the headlight out in a few mins, just don’t drop the screw :(

Parasitic battery drain

Good thread. Can I ask what the spec is for the wing mirror switch and window switch replacements - ie, what Mk golf are they from? I'#039ve done the same as you with the headlight switch and upgraded it to a newer version with the chrome on.

It was the two drivers side 16mm rear control arm bush bolts that were both at least half a turn loose. Ended up buying new bolts for both sides and fitting them, and it'#039s been silent since.
Lesson there was don'#039t trust other people'#039s work, and when a car is new to me, just check all bolts in
