T6.1 OEM LED Headlight retrofit

Hello. I'm writing from Turkey. I also have a T6.1 halogen headlamp transporter. I found this form by doing a daytime led light survey. Someone did an led assembly on YouTube. I have commented on YouTube for information waiting for a return. Video link

So is this for t6.1 led lights onto a t6.1 or to the t5.1/t6?
 
Obviously we shouldn't forget about our German friends :whistle: .

I have offered on another thread to do the retrofit on a 6.1 for someone for free if they buy the headlights and associated parts, not aware of anyone having done one yet so can’t make any guarantees but if anyone is interested I would be interested in the discussion
I have already made a couple 6.1 prototype looms so install should be relatively straight forward ?
Hi mate I have just bought 2 brand new LED headlights for my T6.1 if you fancy giving it a go?
 
Plenty of other parts will be required to do the install including the levelling system which is mandatory to get the headlights working, if you are seriously considering it then we can have a chat and sort exactly what parts you have so we can figure out what else we need and what it will likely cost but will require you to drop the van to me in Plymouth for a few days to do it
 
Are there specialists to tell me everything that needs to be modified to replace the halogen lights with original VW LEDs ?

Headlights and headlight power modules (1 per headlight)
Levelling control module
Front and rear level sensors
Wiring loom to connect it all up

followed by lots of coding/adaption channel tweaks

Its not a straight forward retrofit and prob not one to take one unless your experienced or quite confident

Hi , the van has all the level sensors etc , the I’ve got the main beam working however struggling to connect on the canbus, the 2 addresses of the lights I’m short of d6 and d7 are not showing on the van gateway installation list so looking at trying to add them , I’ve a set of the old t6 led so may go down the route of using the the internal cables and module for the high beam , side light and indicator but just trying a few things and doing a bit of research first, I’ve seen 2 people so far that have done this , I’ve found the link to morzze modules so I will try buy them

Sorry i was replying to the comment above yours

Be very interested to see how you get on though, looks like an interesting project !!
 
No worries, I will keep you posted on it I think it’s going to be an interesting and learning project with it hopefully working in the end fingers crossed

Can you post your current VCDS AUTOSCAN?

Hi Robert , yes I’m back working it again this weekend so I will get a copy of it, my vcds computer is not connected to an email so I will take some pic off my phone of it and post it up , it’s a genuine vcds latest update so should get all information.
 
Hi Robert, here is the scan , both headlights are unplugged, the van has an after market radio in so that’s the missing module on the van install , as said before I’m not 100% sure if the current bcm is capable of talking to the modules on the headlights , I will post what I think they should be installed as
