Jesus i havent been that early for a right video. I have stock wagon with lights on front doora but would like to know if its possible to add them on rear doors aswell. I know mk7 hatchbacks have them on the rear doors.
@@mrfixpl they do not. My 2018 GTI se, as well as my brother’s 2017 GTI se lack any lighting in the rear doors and foot wells. Same goes for a 2016 and 2018 golf R’s that I was looking at before getting my car
@mr-fix 1:45 so, what happens when I try this with a Golf R door panel or with a GTE one since it’s blue, does it turn white or does it turn red … I know you don’t tend to respond but I really need you on this one please. Thankyou!
Hi dude, Can I do similar application to 2013 A3 for 4 doors? There is no Bang and Olufsen in the vehicle. Will my door modules support or will bcm change?

Hi, I am planning to add door sill illumination on my 2017 Golf MK7 so that when I open the door they light up. I read that they are controlled by the front door controllers.

@@mrfixpl That's bad man. Same here in Romania. Could you, by any chance, post a pic or write a small sentence to where did you get the power for the door handle led ? I just mounted everything and idk if I should go for the power windoe switch or somewhere else. Thanks alot and good luck.
@@AlexAlex-es1fj I'm planning to power front illumination via front door modules. There are two types of door modules. If you check hardware number (you can do it via OBDeleven or VCDS) and it ends with 393/392, then it will not work. You need to have modules with HW# ending with 592/593. For the rear door I was planning to guide wires from front to back to have the rear ones powered and controlled by the front door modules. This would give me full control of the lights Not sure if I'm going to do it this way. Stay safe!

Excellent video!! From this moment I follow you! I already have the ambient light system installed, Is it possible to change the white light spotlights to RGB? And control them by infoteinment as in passat B8?
RGB uses different hardware than single color illumination. It was not available in Golf MK7 but it was in Passat B8. So if you have some manual skills you could retrofit it into MK7. This of course requires some coding and even BCM module swap in older MK7s. RIght now I'm staying with white ones.

The separate circuit: handle griff illumination is one, LED strip is two.
Negative is shared, two positive lines for two functions.
