Hi people, I traded in my "05 GTI last week for an '06 GTI. I am slowly getting used to all the new features but still cant figure out how to turn on the fog lights? I searched the forum but couldnt find an answer. The manual mentions it, but its vary vague.

Side Note: While looking for the fog light answer, I learned about the headlight sprayers behind those slots in the bumper - VERY COOL I was wondering what those were for.

Pull out (towards your body) on your headlight switch that will turn on the fogs

Ok, I finally got it. For some reason I kept pulling the high beam low beam lever back towards me, it was the book that gave me that impression for some reason.

I finally noticed the fog light symbol on the headlight switch, then pulled the switch (instead of the lever) towards me like you said. That was driving me nuts for days.

Thanks Zulu!

Didn't the 05 GTI have fog lights? VW has used pretty much the same type of headlight/foglight switch since the MkIII generation.

Do the fog lights come standard with GTI or they're a separate accessory which we have to order? I couldnt really tell by looking at the Volkswagen website.

They come standard with the Gti.

MY '05 was an MKIV, it didnt come with fog lights

I think it was an option on the MKIV's.

Apparently most new VWs, except for the GTI, don't have fog lights at all.

i think the foglights adds a meaner look at night time.
