i have a 2010 jetta and want replace map lights, dome lights and trunk lights with led lights ,now if i replace the stock bulbs with bright led bulbs would i get a error code on the instrunmen panel or any errors since led use less energy and uses less heat..thanks
vw is so particular of what mods you do to the car..
any one try this or have any suggestions...

Does anyone know the voltage of the map lights, dome lights and trunk lights.These ones i want to put in are 12v..so if they are the same voltage maybe the can be changed without any error codes...
has anyone put these in their car..thanks

Interior bulbs changed to leds will not throw any codes. The only place that will happen is in brake and turn signal lights - since the ECU will try and warn you of a malfunction due to it being a safety issue.
