yes, the LED is definitely bright enough...
The effort for the rear doors was not worth it for me. I have enough space in the front

good morning. I soldered the ground to the existing pin and isolated it cleanly

Please don't get me wrong, but for certain reasons, I no longer provide instructions online.
1) you can find out how to remove the door panel with just a few clicks online, including a video.
2) you can also find out how to remove the door handles with just a few clicks online, including a video.
3) the electrical part has been clarified, PIN 1 on the 16-pin connector.
4) the coding was given as byte 1 bit 0 STG 42/52
5) laying the cable is normally self-explanatory.
I really like to help and share my knowledge, but not with instructions
For the handles at the back, you obviously have to go through both door connectors, i.e. the A and B pillars. It just wasn't worth the effort for me.

Once mine door handles come back from painting I will try to create as much detailed instruction as possible (probably without some obvious details like how do you remove door cards and so on). That's why I've created this topic - to share as much knowledge about that mod as possible
Pin 1 on A3 or T16g connector in door control unit (same thing on driver and passenger side)
Nah, why should I have? This is like any other mod that someone was willing to share with others on forum and does not take any credit for that. If I had a problem with that, I wouldn't have written this post. Feel free to offer it to others and take advantage for being one of the first interested in this modification
Ah, you mean in this way... Then I don't know to be honest. Every information for this mod is publicly available and I am the person who only wanted to consolidate all of the knowledge in one place. I am not a manufacturer of those handles, wiring diagrams are also available for the public (yeah yeah, I know, but I've paid for the access), also I am not gaining any material goods by doing this things. Maybe some day I will receive letter from sad men from VW AG, time will tell
@Slavixs you said that you will be installing keyless version of those handles. Have you ordered handles and wiring? To me it's barbaric to charge that much for few connectors and wires so I would love to know PN of those connectors, but I am not able to find anything that looks like them. I would be great if you have any more info about that

15€ for one connector, part number unknown... Yikes!
At least now 45€ for complete wiring for keyless doesn't sound that harsh. Thanks for the link though

Few minutes in ETKA and I think that I found it. The most promising one is 3G0973708 (blue), but there are also 3G0973708A (white), 3G0973708B (gray) and 3G0973708C (violet) variants. ETKA says that 3G0973708 is used in Skoda Enyak for Keyless and its door handle (8Y0959121) indeed has 8-pin connector
Edit. Skoda Enyak and Octavia probably uses 3G0973708A (white) which would match color of a connector in the door handle.
