My question is, are the headlight assemblies for the 2012-2015 interchangeable as far as size is concerned. They look the same to me.

I've been looking at some on various sites including eBay. On eBay many have a fitment chart and some will say "Will not fit 2015 Passat".

Is it because of an electrical issue rather than a size issue?

A sample eBay ad.


Thanks

was there not a slight front end change to the 2015 Passat?

And I have a question, has anyone used something like WeatherTech's polyurethane film protector on their headlights/fog lights? they do not have a 2015 version but they have a 2012-2014 version

No, the 2012 to 2015 are the same headlight units, I found out recenly. VW changed the hoodline and fender lines in 2016. So the headlight protectors should work for you.

I've given up on changing the headlight units. Just too mucking fuch money for that !

Found the Weathertech H2015BW in Canada on Amazon.ca for Cdn $ 66.19. But right now out of stock.
Us price between $ 55.00 and $ 65.00 plus .
