    H All,

    Just picked up my Passat GT in blue yesterday and did not order LED lights !! DOH !!

    Did a search on here but nothing came up.

    Anyone changed the yellow DRL bulbs for a better looking LED one?

    Cheers Jason.

    No, my Post is just for the LED option, but the removal of the light assembly is the same. You will have 2 bulbs instead of the 1 in mine. One is the Fog and the other the DRL.

    OK, Cheers.

    Two bulbs? Can I not just change the DRL's and leave the fog lights?

    Of course. Don't know what bulb they are though so you'd have to look. You'd need a Canbus version of the LED equivalent to stop any faults from showing on your dash.

    I know this is an old post but for anyone else it might be useful.

    I have a Passat Alltrack B8 and with standard lighting. It has a twin drl / fog light setup. Having just taken the bulbs out I have found that the DRL is a W21W. As mentioned above the fog light is H8.

    I have yet to look whether there is a canbus W21W LED bulb on the market. Let me know if anyone has any recommendations.
