Smoked rear lenses were a standard fitting on the Polo GT (9N) as were smoked side repeater lenses. Get yourself down to your nearest VW dealer and talk it through with the parts people.

If you need any advice on fitting just contact me again.

Having gone through this myself and talked to loads of people in the VW community about this I am now an expert. Here's the deal.

The groaning noise on your 9N will either be:

THE FRONT SUSPENSION BUSHES. If so the noise is usually apparent at very low speeds (eg: when parking) and is more ...
