    Rear lights A3 conversion

    Hi all, looking at getting some new rear lights for my 57 plate A3 8PA, it’s got the pre facelift lights at the moment due to it being a pre facelift model but do these off a 10 plate work correctly? I know some have different light clusters so unsure if these are the same? Thank in advance!
