Hi guys,

This is not a real DIY :mad:

I just wanted to link some references for someone who wants to change all interior lights into his MK6. It has been very useful to me ; I didn't break any pieces and did the light change quicker.

Footwells :

Sorry if it has already been done. I did many researches on the subject and just wanted to share the result !

Here's the replacement guide that displays which bulbs to use:

Good modding :thumbsup:

Swapping the footwells were a PITA. Those metal housing units gave me all kinds of grief. So worth it though.

Bump for a helpful thread. Shouldn't be buried, maybe should be stickied. Thx OP.

Okay so just to make sure before I pull the trigger and order all the leds I need can someone verify I have the right stuff picked out?

6X 194- For the map lights and glove box

1X 42mm festoon for the rear trunk light

2X 37mm festoon for mirror lights

I already have red led footwells but if somone wants to do those as well I believe they are also a 194 and you will need 2.

edit:
I just got the leds in and the numbers and dimensions are correct for all locations.
