Default European OEM lighting parts for 2006 New Beetle?

Does anyone have part numbers and/or a source for the front clear corner lights and rear red fog light on the European 2006 New Beetle? I've attached some pictures below to illustrate the lights I'm talking about. Also, any idea if the newer Euroswitch used in the Mk V Jetta would work or is there a specific one I need to use? Thanks.

If I can get a VIN number for an 05, I might be able to get the part numbers from the dealer downtown.

The '06 NB/NBC is still on the MkIV platform and I believe that the headlight switches are identical so the standard Euroswitch will work.

It looks like the difference is that the newer version supports the automatic/coming home function.

Except that the first switch pictured is out of a Jetta/Golf V, not the '06 NB/NBC.

Yes I know. I asked if the Mk V switch would work in the 2006 New Beetle. The pictures above show a Mk V switch from a Jetta along with a Mk IV switch from a New Beetle. Other than cosmetics it seems the only difference is the coming home feature which I don't think the New Beetle supports in it's programming.

They do have a version of the Mk V switch without the coming home function though. Still unknown if it is physically compatible.

Your best bet Concept1 is to get a MK4 Euroswitch. That's what you need and also, what will work. As for the rear fog, see if squeebug can't get it for you.

Sorry, didn't know that's all you were looking for. No, the Mk V switch will not work, it has a different plug.

I would need them for a 2006 New Beetle though as they are totally different from the 2005 models. Don't have the car yet though.
