Aftermarket HID. What do you think of these?
Hey everyone. I just bought my 00 A4 2.8 and it's an awesome car. I have an addiction like most and feel the need to mod the hell out of this car. first I want to start with the lights. I have the projectors right now, but I really want the HID's. I can't afford the AUDI OEM versions. I was looking at a these http://hidynamic.com/ . Just wondering if anyone else has an aftermarket set. I know to stick with a Hella or Phillips brand and these do have one or the other. For under $300, I guess it's not all that bad. If other's are interested maybe we can get a group buy thing going with the company. Let me know what you think. thanks

Yeah I couldn't see the site that well either. Looked as if I was FTP ing into the site. The other HID's I found were 12000K . Main reason I am doing the mod is so it will improve my vision at night. I have trouble seeing at night so this mod makes the most sense to me. And it looks really cool too!

If you click on the link, then click on "rs6_install.html" you will see how to retrofit halogen ecodes with RS6 lights. Thats gonne probably be the least amount of effort and suprisingly the cheapest. I bought my hella/philips RS6 kit on ebay for 188 bucks complete with bulbs, ballasts and ignitors.

I'm not sure. I've been an audi owner for one week now! You either have the HID's already or you don't. I , unfortunatley, do not have them so I am looking to buy some. The "HID" Bulbs are garbage so I am going to buy the HID kit. I think the stock HID's are only rated at around 5000K-6000K. The ones I found were double that! These are pics of the 12000K ones on a BMW.

http://hidynamic.com/ That's the link. I have e-mailed them about some information. If we can get enough people, maybe we can get a group buy discount going. It says on the site that they offer that. Can't beat it for under $300. and the bulbs are Hella too
