Bumper off as shown in the DIY guides section for 6n2 GTI sidelights replacement - quickest and safest way to do it :)

All polos come prewired for fog lights, and just requires a replacement headlight switch with fog option to activate them.

is this switch the same as the gti one? does it allow you to have the front fogs on without the side lights?

You can have fogs and sidelights, or fogs headlights and sidelights. There is no fog on its own option.

And yes it is the same. Its identical throughout the polo range in the 6n2s for all those fitted with fogs.
