I've got these lights on my car, had to some modifications to the wiring to get the reverse & fog lights to work but i'm very pleased with them on my black car, I much prefer them to the Valeo LEDs

....Those look much much better than I thought they would. Do you have any better pics?

How do the inner LED units function?

Got a link where to buy, please? - I might be selling my LED Valeos!

Here are the ones I got


http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/350513291031?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649

I had to modify the wiring (easy job just making the wires longer to either side), had to grind a little off the back of the lights just to make them sit right (me just being picky) and a bit of work to get the wiring for the inner lights from the outer lights it was basically plug & play.

Also they were cheaper than the Valeo LEDs I had previously  :smiley:

No need to shout mate  :signLOL:

All I had to do to get them to work correctly was to do a little modification to the golfs standard wiring to get the reverse & fog lights to work correctly.

Yes they are the opposite way round but they work correctly as I have modified my wiring, there is no way of changing the lens round as people do on the Valeo LED version.
