So i finally got around to take new pics of my 09 LED tails installed on my 07. It complements my custom LEDs upfront quit nicely...

 

So the 09 taillights fit in the earlier models? Any major mods to make it work?

 

No major modding-- The 09 Taillamps i got were the Euro version (amber turn signals) and came with harnesses for direct plug n play to the existing wiring in our cars. The inner leds (the one that goes on the hatch) requires to be 'spliced' or tap-connected to the license plate light wiring to provide power to them inner leds. The outer leds will be powered via the harnesses. Once they are connected- All the bulbs will be lit like your normal taillights and the LEDs. To only have the LEDs on (and the inner bulbs to activate for braking) you would need to have someone VAG-com the central convenience value...
I also installed an aluminum trimmed TT switch (to have the rear fog option) and had that VAG'ed so now I also have rear fogs (when needed)..

 

Looks Awesome defiantly a mod I will be doing. Now just finding a local shop that will do the Vaging for me.
