    Rear Light Boards

    My rear light boards have got pretty corroded over the years and are in need of change.

    Does anybody have any for sale? I'm pretty keen to change this ASAP so if I don't get any responses soon I shall give the boys at VAGparts a call.

    I just changed mine - NOT at all expensive from VAGparts. Sub 20 quid each side from memory, but if they are corroded then its most likely water getting past the mastic seals... You need to change that gooey stuff. Search for a how-to guide on rear clusters for part numbers and useful tips. I need to put my own write up on S2central one day.

    I had half a cup of water inside my drivers side rear cluster !

      Bloomin eck! Thats alot of water!

      Well I did get the rear clusters sealed a short while back but the boards were slightly corroded and definaltly needed changing. Unfortunately after the car was resprayed I don't think they were sealed up properly but its not too much effort so I will have another go at it when I source the new boards.

      Thanks Paul!
