The Passat Style Dome Light:
The 3 pin connector goes to the stock wiring harness connector and the 6 pin one goes to the new light: Attachment 2341227
MINI ATM APM type fuse tap: Attachment 2341232 |
A really helpful post, thank you so much @SuperSuri. I was finally able to source one Dome Light in the light beige colour after a month of struggle. Aliexpress being banned made life difficult for all of us. The one I have does not come with the 3 pin connector that goes to the stock wiring harness.
I am ready to pay a decent price for the 3 pin connector & the mini ATM APM fuse tap that you have posted about.
I request someone to please help me with a source / link to but these two parts. I cant wait to complete this mod on my 1.2 TSI Vento DSG HL Plus.
Thanks in advance! |
