    These lights are unbelievable. I have to thank DAP not only for the fantastic lights, but also for developing the harness, putting together these amazing videos, and for the OBD Eleven app. And most most importantly, for their unbelievable customer service.
    I am no car guru. This mod scared the crap out of me. It took me about 4 hours to do it all and once done, nothing was working. I started freaking out. I called DAP and spoke to Paul. When he answered, I said “wait, you are Paul, like TH-cam Paul?!” I told him what was going on and he asked me to take pics of everything and email it to him. He called back after a couple of hours and could tell immediately what was wrong, which thankfully was easy to fix.
    And boom, gorgeous lights, everything back in place like it was meant to be this way. Thank you so so much.
    EDIT - a few tips
    1. I used the longest cable ties I could find instead of the snake tool and for me I think it was safer as nothing ripped
    2. I heated up some of the panels with a blow dryer when putting them back on
    3. I watched this video a ridiculous number of times, sometimes seeing the same 10 seconds over and over again

      Neehar Gupta how did you get the rear fog to work? I’ve been trying to get help and have had no luck. Also my turn signals don’t follow through to the outer tailights. I’m completely at a lost.

    Thank you for these lights, I just bought them and installed them into my 2019 Golf R and I love them. Thanks for this video to help the install and doing the hard work of getting the harness developed. The people behind me thank you as well, as every time I turn or brake, these put on a show.

    In cases where you're running the fish tape through areas such as trim or boots where you know you're pulling cables in both directions, you can easily run some sort of pull string through at the same time, which would then allow you to pull the inner-light cable back through for the outer harness, so that you don't have to run the fish tape through twice.

    The connector for the driver side inner doesn't connect unless using dremel to rid of ridge that is blocking the connector provided from inserting into oem plug. Again this for inner tail. This is DAP harness. Second one I've had due to first car being totaled.

  • @blue-ck9ns
    @blue-ck9ns 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Here’s the thing don’t get. If US regulations don’t allow dynamic amber turn signals, why doesn’t VW just modify these taillights, so that the turn signal bulb is red instead of amber, and so that the turn signal only flashes, instead of sweeps across? That could definitely be done. Or, they could make it so that the outer brake lights flash in addition to the sweeping turn signal (like is done on some Audi models in the US)???
    The reason being, is because the real reason that they took these taillights out, is because they’re cost cutting, and they try to use our regulations as an excuse for the cost cutting. They could put a slightly modified version of these taillights on our cars from the factory if they really wanted to. But nope, instead they decided to put the taillights from the basic Golf on our cars, and this continues with the MK8.
    That’s probably the most annoying part about buying any VW model, is that you always have to take apart the car and start retrofitting things that the car should’ve came with from the factory.
