Hey gang,
I've got a 2001 S8 that didn't come with the Tire Pressure Monitoring System or an auto on/off headlight system. Does anyone know if either of these can be retrofitted from the newer models back to my model year? I'm not sure the headlight auto on/off system was ever an option - anyone know?, but I'm sure the TPMS was available in 02, 03.
Thanks in advance all!

12/4/04 Purchase 01 CPOed Ming Blue S8 w/ecru interior from NY dealer.
Brought car home to Ohio.
Took car to local dealer for 40K service & some minor warranty work.
Traveled on business on and off for 3 weeks driving the car only sporadically.
01/05/05 This happens on the way to "breakfast w/daddy" day with one of my daugthers. Careless driver was rushing to make the traffic light coming out of an apartment complex that parallels my street. Both his airbags deploy. None do in the Audi.
