Video tutorial

In this video, we see how to install puddle lights on the front doors of a Volkswagen car (specifically a Golf). The video refers to devices purchased on Ali Express, but as often happens with this platform, the reference is no longer usable: we can direct you to another code like admonc.com with the code 8055386762952 at a price of 29.99 euros for the two-door version, with free shipping.

We dismantle the internal panel of the door, disconnect the connector from the control unit and pull out the wires; we take the brown wire following the detailed instructions of the youtuber and make the connection.

We mount the projector in its place and reassemble the door trim. Then we need to activate the software using a laptop and a VAG.com programmer version 19.6.2. We connect it to the EOBD port, turn on the ignition and connect the USB cable to the computer and open VCDS and search for the relevant control unit which is located on block 42, search for coding 7 byte 1 activate bit 2. exit with "exit" "do it". To activate the passenger side projector, we go to block 52 coding 7 byte 1 bit 2 also here "exit" "do it" and we are done.
