But you should note that these lights are asymetrical (i.e. fog light on the offside and reversing light on the nearside, replaced with reversing light on the other) -- you'll need to make sure those part numbers are for the UK lights.

This guy's had the side repeaters blanked off the wings as well. Expensive. You'd face this problem if fitting 9N3 (if that's what it's called

) mirrors to a 9N - unless, of course, you'd be happy with two repeaters...

the "M"s at the end of the part numbers refer to LHD. I'm not sure but I guess "N" refers to RHD cars, but you might want to double check.
so it would be
Left: 6Q6 945 095 N
Right: 6Q6 945 096 N

I installed my 9n3 rear lights today, and put together a small DIY guide for it:

i hope it is going to be useful for those considering this mod.

The wing mirrors are really nice, actually. They're lit by an LED in the outer most corner, then there's a series of "ribs" on the glass inner surface that diffuse the light at intervals along the underside -- same principle as used by angel eyes. The led itself is covered by a little section of chromed metal under the glass. I've got close-up pics that should be on the site be the end of this weekend.

I looked at logistix awesome guide (thanks!) but could anyone confirm the wiring conversion for RHD?
There is a set of RHD lights that I might be getting
Thanks,
Mike
