They are micro LED's or so i'm told, no chance of removing without some serious soldering/electrical skills.

As said, theres a fault there for a reason, use vagcom and get it cleared.

Just after a quick fix i have an mot on wednesday and my insurance runs out like the day after, its not my main car its just sitting in the garden becoming the wildlife ! mot place say if i take the clocks apart and take the bulb out OR cover the abs bulb up they will pass it then i can put it back to normal and put it on ebay !
So any ideas on how to take clocks apart ? lol

why did you change all 4 anyway ?

get the diagnostics read first then ideally reset ( may be all it needs ) that way you know what if anything is wrong and save f'n it up trying to bodge it

no diagnostic kit for any VAG at any garage? No dealers?

blimey where are you located :confused:

try a request in the vag-com forum, with luck you'll find a friendly member willing to scan and clear the codes and probably find that's all it needs and even worse case at least you will know what the issue is thats listed
