I will receive a new inner light this week and I'll open it up to find out.

I can confirm that in a non facelift d3 the inner facelift brakelights illuminate.
Somebody with a facelift from factory please confirm if his inner lights also have Ambers functional besides the reversing lamp?? |

I can confirm the facelift inner lights do not light up when indicating - that's reserved for the outer lights.
...Shame, really. I think they would have looked really good. |

Now I'm really curious to find out if it has led bulbs in place

I inspected mine pretty closely and I can't see any LEDs in that section.
I would love to be wrong though! |

I must also say that I don't see the LED like little yellowish square in the little bump inside the reflector

I fancied doing all four but money restraints and an upcoming MOT meant common sense prevailed and I only ordered the NS outer. I ordered on Sunday from Spareto (Thanks Rick ) and it arrived Wednesday and I fitted it within ten minutes without a problem. What I did notice when removing the power supply was when I turned it over water poured out all over my hand, quite a lot of water in fact. I looked closely at the top edge or seam and can't see an obvious opening at all, and running it under a tap doesn't seem to enable water ingress, so maybe pressure washing is a contributing factor?? Anyway, I've decided that running a thin seam of clear silicone along the groove on the top edge might be a worthwhile exercise to prevent any future ingress, anyone tried this already? I'll also be checking closely for water in future as I suspect if I'd noticed the level building up I'd have been able to empty it and prevent failure and avoid buying a new one. At £167 they're a relative bargain compared to Audi prices but I don't want to be shelling out every three years or so for what seems a design fault.
