Pre facelift to facelift conversion?

denA6 · Dec 18, 2014

Just bought a 57 plate pre facelift A6 avant with front damage. Just wondering before I start buying parts- is the facelift version parts a simple bolt on conversion? What parts are different -ie wings, bonnet, headlights, bumper etc????
Thank you in advance

Hi, only difference on wings is that facelift models there is no side turn signal as it is in mirror housing. Bonnet I think is same only windscreen washer jets are different. Bumper easy can be fitted. Headlight housing and fitting points are same but if use headlights with LED DRL you must replace onboard supply control unit and change some wiring connection.

you don't have to replace central electric module, software simply can be updated ( no component protection ) and that will give you functionality for full face lift conversion i.e.:led headlights with dimming led when indicator's on and turn signal in mirror housing, which is driven by can bus signal - no additional wiring required. ( you'll also need to replace door control modules for face lift as the ones fitted to your car will not have this option and fit face lift wing mirrors). As mentioned above wiring for headlights needs to be changed too.

Hi would you consider doing this conversion for me? I have all parts required and would be interested in a price to have this done? Thanks

Would love to know about the pinout change in the headlight upgrade to FL bi-xenon drl . I've fitted them but drl doesn't dim and when I switch to auto or dipped beam I get sidelights/daytime running lights bulb error . Short to plus
