Dark cherry upper brake light?
« on: February 03, 2017, 07:59:37 pm »
Hey.
Finaly got my brand new tailgate fitted yesterday and don't want to put in my old 3rd brake light (the upper light).

I've installed some dark cherry red taillights and want the light to match as much as possible. Anyone know if it's possible to buy anywhere? - Or do I have to buy a new standard light and get a painter from the bodyshop store to tint it?

Is there a different on the light shaping on different models? I got a 2.0TDI - Will a light from GTI boot fit or?

Standard models and GTI R32 rear spoilers are different and the high level brake lights are different as well and I've never seen a darkened type R32 light so it's a new gti type light and down to the paint shop unless you can buy an aftermarket tinted light
