Moving the rear fog light.

Post by AL1874 »

Because I drive in Germany I've got to move the rear fog light from the right hand light cluster to the left hand light cluster.

The cluster itself has the same part number for the continental and UK markets so there is no problem there.

What I want to know is, is it just a case of replacing / moving the bulb from one side to the other or does the wiring loom at the back require alteration (i.e. running a feed from the right cluster to the left cluster) to support the change.

Thanks for your assistance in advance

Al,
I seem to remember reading on the forum somewehere that there is a VAG-COM option for enabling both rear fog lights so presumably this means that the wiring is in place.

Just two boxes to tick on VAG-COM to enable both rear fog lights.

Wonder if using VAG-COM to tell the car it's left-hand drive will move single fog light operation to the other side...? :shrug:
