Confused which is correct part

[Lancashire Lad]

Hi, I want to change the sensor in my 16 plate, to the one with rain and light. Problem I have is some threads say 5Q0955547B and others say 5Q0955559B. Which is the correct one?

Anyone please?

5Q0955547B is rain and humidity sensor, 5Q0955559B is just rain sensor. Both of them seems to have light and rain sensor. I know that there are some implications depending of what is currently installed in you car, but don't know the details. In my Leon (facelift) I've got 5Q0955547B installed though

My car currently just has the humidity sensor.

I once installed a 5Q0955547B as a replacement in a pre-facelift Octavia 5E, and it worked without any problems. The original 5Q0955547 was installed. It's a rain and light sensor.
