Hope this helps.



Euro-spec housings are housings that have clear corners w/out the amber insert, contains city lights, and has bulb covers over the turn signals.

If you have 99.5+ OEM halogen, you can get Euro housings with the clear corners and it will fit stock bulbs. You can also upgrade to aftermarket Xenons and it will work with stock OEM housings or the Euro projector housings.

If you have 2000+ OEM Xenons, you HAVE to get the Euro S4 Xenon housings as the A4 Euro projector housings will NOT accept the OEM Xenon bulb.

If you have the two piece headlights, you can upgrade to aftermarket Euro two-piece system from Lltek that can be bought with HID or not or go the 99.5+ route with some minor fender triming.

For those of you on a budget, there are other options available other than getting Euro Housings as an upgrade. For example, if you are a 99 and earlier A4 owner and want a one piece conversion headlight system, you can acquire a used set of 99.5+ headlight housing and install w/ some minor fender trimming as it utilizes the some blub size. From that, you can upgrade to aftermarket Xenons and it will work w/ OEM one piece halogen housings. HOWEVER, YOU MUST PURCHASE HOUSINGS FROM SOMEONE THAT DIDN'T HAVE OEM XENONS. OEM Xenon housings are made for OEM Xenon systems. For you 99.5+ people, you can just upgrade to aftermarket Xenons that can be purchase listed below.
