hello everyone.

i have a 63 plate audi S6 and i am wanting to do a facelift conversion.

i have purchased C7.5 facelift headlights (not matrix ones) obvs a facelift bumper too.

now the important bit. are the headlights a straight fit. meaning are the plugs the same or do i need adapters.

i know they will need coding. but can’t find anything online about the plugs.

many thanks
 
Nothings ever straight fit, got your pm, mobile atm will reply when back.
 
Unfortunately it's not that simple. You need a wiring harness adapter, then you need a new central electric module, then you will need all that coding and component protection removing, which needs to be done with a licensed version of ODIS so either the dealer or a third party. You may also need to update the can-gateway either firmware or replace it to support the headlights (Not 100%) sure on that one.

Kufatec sell some of the parts https://www.kufatec.com/en/audi/a6/a6-4g/?p=2&o=1&n=12&f=109

Yeah i knew it won’t be a straight fit. i just need someone who can do it for me, from wiring to the coding etc. i don’t want to mess about with electronics my self and F something up.
