VW Golf 8 CD red LED contour lighting radiator grille retrofit package

Significantly enhance your VW Golf 8 CD with the original LED contour lighting with red GTI stripes in the radiator grille.

With this retrofit package, the illuminated ID.Light LED light bar in the radiator grille (= below the hood) can be retrofitted in your VW Golf 8.

Your VW Golf 8 shines with a "new" splendor, especially at night.

Of course, the contour lighting also lights up while driving!

After briefly plugging it into the very easily accessible OBD diagnostic interface in the driver's footwell, the KECODI coding interface supplied here carries out the complete automatic activation of the contour lighting with the help of the innovative KECODI that is already preset for you.

No further activations or even a visit to your VW partner's workshop are necessary; KECODI completes the activation in just a few seconds.

Since the lighting is of course connected and activated as installed at the factory, all lighting functions are available!

In the KECODI activation you can specify when the LED contour lighting should light up (e.g. only when Coming/Home - Leaving Home, only with the dipped beam or even when AUTO - daytime running lights are switched on).

Product attributes:

The retrofitting of the original, white illuminated LED contour lighting (= light bar in the radiator grille with white LEDs) with E-test mark (therefore registration-free) is possible for all VW Golf 8 CD models of all years of manufacture, all body styles (including Variant) and all exterior equipment variants (e.g. PR number: 2JG, 2JX, 2JB, 2JD).

The LED lighting is activated completely independently and in one step using the included KECODI coding interface.

During the activation, you can choose when the new LED lights between the headlights should light up. This is possible for Coming/Home - Leaving Home, with the dipped beam and/or just when the daytime running lights are switched on. All options are open and can be freely adjusted, just as you wish. The KECODI activation asks you here during the activation, you can repeat this as often as you like to change the lighting function.

Further information:

The VW logo is a separate component which is taken from the existing radiator grille in the original VW Golf 8 GTI radiator grille supplied here with IQ.Light LED light strip and red stripes. This logo is simply plugged in and can be exchanged very easily.

If you want to upgrade the grille with black or chrome stripes instead of the red "GTI" stripes, you can find this upgrade package on the Golf 8
