Those are the bi-xenon lights that were standard on the 6.0 L A8 in Europe. I got a pair and put them in my US 2000 A8L. They really help the D2 keep a contemporary look I think. You bav get them from Bosch or a German Audi dlr (I can supply a phone #. They are about $2400 a set.

Default They will be different than the prefacelift 97 A8 headlights...I guess you probably know that you

will be cutting the fenders. Let me know how difficult it is. I will be performing a similar mod when I get around to it this summer.

Default I have a HUGE project going on

I'm redoing a house in a matter of two months, you won't be seeing me here often in the near future.

You can find them on ebay, and when you figure out how to retrofit them to your car tell me....I actually have a facelift US spec light bucket that I was going to use to mock up to see if it would fit, been sitting in my garage for over a year now.....
