I discovered the other day that if you keep hold of the lock button on the keyfob the headlights come on and then if you press then lock button again they go off.

Dunno if that was common knowledge or even any use to anyone but thought I might as well post to let people know

They are "Get you home lights", to let you see where you are walking after locking the car in the dark. Never used them for this though, instead, they're great for winding folk up that walk in front of a parked up / empty disco...LOL.
At work I bet someone I could turn on my headlights without being anywhere near the car...they didnt believe me....I won £1.
 
i tried it on mine and it dont work ! b*stard ! i thought i had learned a new trick :( oh before you ask its a 1996 300 tdi ? does this only work on the discovery 2 ?
 
Attach a big bit of string to your light switch and the other to your key fob through the window and pull.
Ok a few floors but atleast the lights would come on....lol
