I shot a video of the difference between a stock base headlight switch, stock headlight switch w/front fogs, and Euro switch with front and rear fogs. Also shown is how to remove the headlight switch.

In mk4 VW it's plug-play but I can't remember if it shuts off DRL. In mk5 up to 2009 I believe it's also plug-play but you have to click a check box to shut off DRL. I believe after 2010 you also have to run a wire as seen in the FAQ article http://www.myturbodiesel.com/1000q/a6/euroswitch-drl-vw-golf-jetta.htm . My guess is that it was a 2009-2010 change and not a mk5-mk6 change.
