I have the B9 matrix lights. They are readily available on the open market. Getting the B9.5 laser matrix would jack up the price considerably most likely. I also think you would be going into uncharted retrofit territory. I wanted to stay at under 1/3 of a kit price and these are plenty bright.

The post-facelift laser lights are just the housings to replace a B9.5 set. They do not include the needed modules or other components required. This is for the person who really does not want the orange side marker and is fitting back their stock post-facelift modules onto the European housings.
The pre-facelift matrix headlights are a retrofit package with all of the needed items to upgrade from LED headlights on a pre-facelift model.

You should try and retrofit the illuminated seatbelt buckles of the A6/A7/A8.
You'd need power (obviously) and I assume some sort of data connection to tell them to turn off with the other interior lights.

Working on ordering a set of the illuminated front seat belt receptacles and making some harnesses up to adapt more easily. Audi oddly changed up the plug so much it uses different pins so you can't swap a plug onto the car or the new receptacle and would prefer not to be cutting/splicing wires like that on a seat belt system.
Stay tuned for those in coming weeks!

Didn’t even know those existed. That might make the MIL happy. She can never find the buckle and I have to help. (Insert your own comment here). I’m too busy now until Apr 15, but do tell more John.
