Is this part compatible with all VW Golf Mk7 models?

This rear light lamp is compatible with VW Golf Mk7 models manufactured between 2012 and 2021, specifically for the right side. It's crucial to verify your vehicle's existing part number against the compatible OEM references listed.

What does 'Valeo' mean in relation to my car part?

How can I be sure this is the correct part for my car?

Confirm your vehicle is a VW Golf Mk7 (2012-2021) and check the OEM part number on your current right-side rear light assembly. This Valeo part is compatible with 5G0945096B and several other related OEM numbers.

What is the weight of this rear light lamp?

The weight of this rear light lamp is approximately 1.354 kg.

Can I install this myself?

Installation can typically be done by a DIYer with basic automotive tools and knowledge. However, if you are uncomfortable with car repairs, it is recommended to have a professional mechanic install it to ensure correct fitment and electrical connection.

Troubleshooting

Light unit does not illuminate

Check the bulb is correctly seated (if applicable) and that the electrical connector is securely attached. Verify the vehicle's fuse for the tail light is intact. Test the bulb itself if possible.

Water ingress into the lamp assembly

Ensure the lamp is properly sealed against the vehicle body. Check for any cracks in the lens or housing. If sealing is compromised, re-sealing or replacement of the unit may be necessary.

Incorrect fitment

Double-check that the correct part number (5G0945096B) is being installed and that it is indeed for the right side of a VW Golf Mk7. Confirm vehicle model year and trim compatibility.
