Parts required:
- Suitable LED and resister for 12V operation..
- 000 979 018 (000979018) - Repair Wire (1 required for 2 doors or 1 required per door – see below)
I’m not sure if there is a spare ground on the controller or if an existing one has to be used. - Interior fabric adhesive tape - Fabric Adhesive Tape for wiring looms and harnesses
- Trim Removal Tools
- Selection of heat shrink tubing (3-5mm), soldering iron/blowtorch, solder
- Vagcom/VCDS to code the door (this can be done before or after the install)
Volkswagen Golf & Jetta Door Controller Information Mark V has information on the door controllers. This guide will be based on the install in my March 2008 build MY08 GTI.





Unfortunatelly in my Touran rear handle is solid with the trim and not easy to remove, so I made only front.
And the pins to connect the led ?
My car have door controllers with 18 pins in back doors !
Thanks…
