Mk6 oem LED number plate light's are what I have,plug and play when all you have to do is get the cold lamp check on startup turned off via vagcom and that's it,they are expensive though... :smiley:

Depends which year and controller your car has. I had the mk6 led's and even with the lights disabled it still through a fault code  :sad1:
