    B8 seats in a B6

    I haven't got any pictures yet, but I can take them at some point (and I will). I haven't fixed the brackets yet.

    B8 seats in a B6

    I know it is very late, just came onto this topic looking for support on fitting the rear bench of a B8 in a B6. To confirm: - Front seats fit. Same rails, same mounting. - Front power connector doesn't need modifications, except for cutting the locking clip. Otherwise, it slides in with some...

    Icarus' Audi A5 Bi-Xenon and DRL retrofit to B6 headlight....

    I got mine from a local Dutch webshop: retrofitlab.com - they have ready-to-fit xenon conversion options (including bi-xenon lenses with some socket options including D1S/D2S/H1). He's got ready-made adapters to fit them into the OE housings. Work like a dream.

    Your Caps Lock seems to be stuck my friend.

    Self levelling headlight warning symbol

    The self levelling system is done through your central electric unit. If all else fails, you can: 1. Disconnect the sensors on your control arm (if you want...) 2. Code your central electric to have auto level disabled ("remove feature") 3. Pull fuse (if required, may not even be necessary) 4...

    Icarus' Audi A5 Bi-Xenon and DRL retrofit to B6 headlight....

    Thanks! And yes - you should finish up yours. They're looking great as well, get that stuff going! I still dig your orange main beam indicator.. Anyway - the lights are now fitted and (knock on wood) fully functional. I've just passed my MOT with these lights (yay!), so it functions according...

    Winter Tyres & wheels question

    I can only confirm that. The only "down" side is that they lack a tad under acceleration, but they handle / stop perfectly. And yes - I'd rather be able to stop better than accelerate, if you know what I mean. ;)

    Winter Tyres & wheels question

    Flex in the sidewalls isn't that important I think - it only softens up the suspension. Flexible rubber is more important. It was genuinely harder than expected to get the car a bit sideways for the above pictures - we really needed to use the e-brake to get the tail out. These 18's felt far...

    Winter Tyres & wheels question

    It will be cheaper, just remember that swapping tyres two times a year won't be very good for them. Better to re-use the 18's in the winter and save up for a decent 19" summer set!

    Winter Tyres & wheels question

    How about using the 18's? I have 225/40/18 as a winter tyre and absolutely love it (Vredestein Wintrac Xtreme).

    S4 interior from left hand drive car

    There's no difference between the two seats (Left and Right) - no matter on which side of the road you drive. A left-hand seat in UK is a left-hand seat in NL. The difference is that it'll be less worn because the driver wouldn't have been in it that much ;). Do note that S4 seats have seatbelt...

    Self levelling headlight warning symbol

    What's the exact image you're seeing? A dipped beam icon with two up/down arrows? If so - that's the auto level feature. This image can be anything related to that system, so be sure to check it with VCDS or some other diag tool. Most times it's indicating that it has lost its basic setting...

    Icarus' Audi A5 Bi-Xenon and DRL retrofit to B6 headlight....

    Ok, that's an option too.. :) Any (clear) pics of them turned off, so we can see the insides of the headlight? And pics of them in the car (pref. during normal daylight)?

    Icarus' Audi A5 Bi-Xenon and DRL retrofit to B6 headlight....

    Finally got around to finishing the two headlights. Powersupply and control units are 99% finished, just need to hook them up properly inside the car. All I can tell now - these are hideously bright. Mission accomplished in that respect. Here's four images of them as they are now...

    Not yet, this is as far as they are now. Hopefully I'll get around doing some work on them today..

    Icarus' Audi A5 Bi-Xenon and DRL retrofit to B6 headlight....

    It has been a few months, but I've been able to use your DRL strip @martyj200. They're finally nearing completion.. Just about every single component is modified or custom built. This is by no means an easy retrofit...

    How does your Audi sit?

    I think it's Votex, it's not the best fit, but it's OK. Can't remember what brand it really is - you can find them on eBay quite cheaply.

    How does your Audi sit?

    You know what? You're the first one to have said that in the last 2,5 years. It's basically just cut along the original diesel S-Line lower lip to make room for exhaust tips, and I haven't had the time yet to make/mold a proper insert. I'm planning to make one that should keep this look, but...

    How does your Audi sit?

    Jeez, what tyre size is that? Looks way off - your dial must be indicating like +20% or something, lol. Got new wheels fitted a few weeks back. 8.5x19 (et35) on the front and 9.5x19 on the rear (et45), 235/35 all around. Will be replacing the rears with 255/30 or 255/35 some day, I don't like...

    How does your Audi sit?

    Mine sits pretty snug. Eibach Prostreet S coilovers on 18x8 ET27 225/40's (winter) and 19x8 ET35 235/35 (summer). Summers:
