Illuminated outside door handles

[cgreggers]

I've ordered Keyless version with cables and asked seller to paint them white. Package was definitely worse packed that previous one and was beaten up during shipping. Fortunately handles are fine, but manufacturer did some mistakes.

First of all connector in one handle is loose. It is held by some plastic tabs that needs to be melted to secure connector. This one can be easily removed so probably I will fix it by simply melting those tabs using soldering iron.

Secondly every light is missing screws. I can only guess that they removed lights for painting and forget to screw them after. They are nothing fancy so I will be able to screw them by myself. However I've contacted seller and we will see what they will reply.

I've ordered from this seller: https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_Dn1QAGp

I've selected handles with wiring (because creating wiring for Keyless handles would be more expensive) and in additional info I've asked for white handles. They are definitely not in Nevada White color, but maybe it will be close enough to Candy White

Thanks both. And for non-kessy it looks like this would be the right version? I have nevada white too so I imagine they'd need repainting then.

Yes, I've ordered mine from that link and they work fine

Since I've ordered Keyless version of handles for my friend (because he has Keyless) I've been investigating whether it is possible to activate Keyless handles in the rear doors. Short answer? Yes! Long answer? It depends...

There were two Keyless modules installed in the Leon MK3: 5Q0959435X or 3Q0959435X (from 30.07.2018). Main difference between those two modules is the amount of pinouts (32 vs 40). I've investigated wiring diagrams to determine which pin does what and I've found that 5Q0 modules does not support rear door antennas. Unfortunately my friends car is from 03.2018

As far as I can determine from wiring is that 3Q0 modules has two main advantages above 5Q0:
- they supports rear door handles Keyless antennas/sensors (pins 3/4/13/25/28/29)
- they supports electric trunk lid (pins 2/16)

5Q0	3Q0

Do you know whether those modules have any component protection, immobiliser or anything like that? Or can be easily swapped?
