    Retrofitting Courtesy Footwell Lights on a B6

    Hi all,

    Has anyone tried to retrofit the courtesy footwell lights on a B6?
    I'd like to install courtesy lights on the bottom of the doors also. I think they may be called the courtesy gutter lights?
    Just wondering if the wires are already inside the door somewhere and all i have to do is connect the globes to it or do i have run the wires all the way to the Comfort Control Module.

    this is what i'm talking about.

    So the question is....where is the cheapest place to buy these light assemblies from in Oz?

    BUMP!

    Anyone had any luck with this? My car is a B7, but interior is pretty much identical to B6 anyway. The lack of footwell lights annoys me, even my Golf had this feature. Are there OEM parts available for a retrofit?

    nice kit.. also if you want to purchase the parts and diy then you could following the guidelines for golf.. i think that the parts are the same.

    hrm, seems that oem parts are very expensive so over $100 just for the reflectors alone, then you need the repair wires and connectors and cloth tape.
