Have you searched the forums or even google for all the other Audi forums out there?
I'd personally only go for OEM Bi-xenons but from the tutorials I found, it's not a quick easy/cheap mod
theres a set of bi xenon's for your car on ebay now, £449 for the complete head light units with ballists etc. far as im aware all you will need is codeing, which is a piece of ****, literally swapping number codes around used something like ross tech.
i could be wrong with this info, but im looking at silimar conversion eventually my self........
Not 100% sure about this but...
Headlight washers are only a requirement in some european countries (don't think they are required for a UK Mot) but I do think you need self levellers.
But as I said I'm not 100% sure on that
And my expereince of just fitting HIDs to the standard halogen reflectors is that the beam pattern is so awful I stripped them out after a few weeks. Seemed too blinding to other drivers as well (even when adjusted correctly).
So not to order then? Just looking for a few prices on parts is all. RS4 RARB (with the clips etc) and a black RS4 grille. Will I have any luck with those?
Hi
Currently have '05 plate A4 (B7-8E?) and back in 2005 got HIDs fitted - no problems with it but my MOT is due in March 2012 and i understand aftermarket HIDs will now fail MOTs so thinking of having bi-xenons fitted with auto levelling. Won't come cheap i know, was thinking of using Hazzy Dayz to get them supplied/installed (i'm hopeless at DIY!) but will cost >£2k so want to know if i can get it done cheaper? Could i buy this kit: KUFATEC GmbH & Co. KG - aLWR Komplettset Bi-Xenon Audi A4 B7 33870
and then ask someone on these forums if they could fit them at a fair price? I live in North Scotland (Inverness), however i know people won't come that far for installation so i'd be happy to bring my car over to someone in Scotland or North of England. Any suggestions?
hey psycho
I'm not sure that its the after market HID's that will cause you to fail you MOT. It the lack of a Headlight washing system! So before you run off and spend bundles on Bi-xenons you might what to price up a new front bumper!
I'm currently working on pricing this myself, but I have a S-line B7. So most (if not all) of the part numbers are slightly different.
But if it helps get you started, PM me and I'll give you the Part numbers for the list of stuff you'll need to start collecting
All the best

P.S Before you ask, I'm not the man to fit stiff like this! But I'm very good at holding the torch and making tea
Not sure how they will test for it, but afaik aftermarket kits will be a fail too regardless if has levelling etc fitted, its only oem headlights with levelling & headlamp washers.
Yes the job is a little long winded & expensive, but I supply/fit if you need a fitter, could do with a trip upto scotland
just get your after market kit fitted, soon as its mot time, un plug the kit stick your normal halogens back in.
once car is tested just plug your hid's back in. small amount of work for 12 months of motoring with hid, amd none of the expence of all this self leveling stuff.
just what im going to to and im in the trade.......
oh and trups on here sells plug and play kits for the b7.
