Default Aftermarket Headlights Choices, HELP!!!

Hey everyone, I understand that there are tons of posts concerning aftermarket headlights but I was unable to find exactly what I was looking for. I have a 2002 A6 3.0 Red exterior and was shopping for some aftermarket headlights but can't seem to make a selection. I was really interested in these but can NOT find a single picture of this model light on any 2002 A6 and was hoping you guys could send me a picture of them if you have them on your car by any chance and tell me if you liked them. If you don't have them then just let me know if you THINK they would look cool or do you think they look TOO aftermarket? Anything would help. Thanks: http://www.carid.com/2002-audi-a6-he...tor-82226.html

Read this first. I want the same ones, but I have auto-leveling headlights (2004) so I can't.

Thanks for the advice. After reading that article, I checked and I don't have the auto-leveling headlights. Also, i think the ones on that link were slightly different due to a couple realllly minor differences in appearance and that they come with HID fixtures. Did you like the black ones or the chrome?

If you car is red, I personally would go with the Chrome one. but its up to you, do you want the flashy look or the stealth look. I like the flashy my self.

I like both flashey and stealth look, I have black Audi rings front and back so on my car I would get black lights. Get what match your car the best.

Just to update you guys:

I went with the chrome and they look AWESOME! Doesn't look aftermarket at all... just newer!

Something you might want to be careful about is the auto-leveling feature. Someone mentioned this previously in this thread and I thought I didn't have it but was apparently wrong. I believe that if your car already has HIDs then it'll have the auto-leveling feature which means that once you change you headlight housings, you'll be getting a yellow error message on your instrument screen right where it usually displays the song/radio station. I've gone to various mechanics and they assure me there simply is no way to delete the error message. However, the lights look so good that i find the trade to be worth it! Also, if you order the same lights that i did then they WILL NOT be HID. I had to buy an HID kit separately and rig it all together which was pretty simple. Otherwise it looks funny because your LEDs will be a bluish-white and you're regular lights will be yellow.
