This is what you need buddy, not cheap but ver effective and OEM. Found on the Golf R and Rocco. 2 x 1K8 943 021 C

If you type that into eBay.de you find a few for sale

Something away in the back of my mind says to me that to retrofit Golf R / Scirocco LED lamp assemblies you need to reverse the polarity at the connector. Sorry can't remember where I seen it though.

 

[MalakianCigaro]

Ok I will look into it, thanks
