I also failed saftey because my high beam indicator is out. I need an led (it is an led with a blue cover, I took it out). VW told me that they didn't have this part. Any ideas? Well, still having the memory of this PITA fresh in my mind, let me tell you what I learned. First, that one is not an LED, but a tiny little bulb with a blue cover (which I thought I was missing but later found it down under the dash). I DID order mine from a VW dealer (Alexandria VW in Alexandria, VA) so it is still available, though it cost $8.62, but that included the blue cover. Changing it can be a real PITA, especially getting it back together with all the bulbs in their proper slots. If one of the LEDs falls out, be forewarned they are polarity sensitive. Bentley and Haynes both show the procedure, although the pictures in Haynes are a little clearer. Jeff
