There is no coding on these and no coding on the BCM. Any modifications need to be done via BCM adaptations, retrofitting included.
Not researched anything to do with the 6.1 yet as I don’t have one, did a scan on one just to see if it was much different. As you have noted it is very different. I see they are also using a new module to make it easier for vehicle converters to integrate with the factory electrics, again not looking into the details as no need for me at the moment.

Has anyone had the LED lights retrofitted too their T6.1 yet?
Hazzydayz have said that it's possible. Just checking if anyone has encountered any issues with this?

I see the complaints regarding the poor visibility from the standard headlights and think it’s poor from VW not to fit LED as standard. That said it’s been a well known issue (search the forum) and for me when I ordered my T6.1 my first add-on was the LED lights and I know they are not cheap but the Transporters are not cheap.
Regarding retrospective fitting of led lights to the T6.1 and the new electrical systems I’m sure it will be available but these things take time although I think there are some out here already.

Chances for your LED modules(light source) failure are marginal.
Expected lifetime of these is the same as the whole vehicle.
The only thing that could potentially fail are LED power modules
but these can be bought relatively cheap and are easy to replace.
Another words DON'T worry and enjoy your LED lights
.Factory OEM setup should last for good.
T6.1 halogen headlamps with H7 bulbs are rubbish same as T6!
Sorry I wasn’t very clear - I’ve basically got a T6.1 being built right now and I didn’t opt for the LED lamps (so expensive). I was thinking of trying (1) brighter H7 lamps like the OSRAM Night Breaker or (2) THQ LED H7 bulbs
Waste of time in my opinion.
The only option I would consider in your scenario(saving money)
is to go for after-market LED projectors.
Have a look at my Passat below.
Bi Xenon Or Led Projector Retrofit
Hi, I am new to this forum. I have a 2019 T6 with standard H4 halogen reflector lights. They are dreadful! Has anybody fitted H4 Bi-Xenon HID bulbs? if so what was your experience? for example these H4 HIDS4U HID Xenon Conversion Kits. I am thinking about the 55W version, which suggest a 400%...
Hi mate, are they brighter than the standard H7 the T6.1 come with? Or more for colour/aesthetic?
Looks amazing! Thanks
Thank you!
Hi again, just to clarify - are you referring to the H7 LED bulb itself, or the whole headlamp assembly/fixture replacement?
IM referring to the THq headlights and bulb upgrades - But the LED bulbs can be used in other headlights
