So in order to do this mod properly I would in fact need to buy new housings? These are the stock halogen projector housings that came on the a4. Valero or something to that effect.
So basically to do this proper you need to spend 6-800 to get housings? or should I just look for another kit that costs more ie better quality? I was a bit weary about a 75 dollar kit with 10 dollar discount for being a part of this forum.
Look up an E46 or TSX retrofit. You normally buy the projector itself and fit it into your own housing. Look it up, see if it's something you can do, and then check prices on Ebay or stuff. Just keep in mind that really cheap stuff on Ebay is probably imitation and likely low quality.
I have no idea how those ones Nick mentions are. Look that up and see.

Ohhhh I didn't know they were in stock halogen housings. That makes perfect sense. You do need to get projectors. It throws the light a lot better and doesn't blind others. I was wondering why mine don't look like your aha. You could pick up some depo headlight housings for 250. That's what I did.
well they are stock halogen projectors. I just edited that. Does that make a difference?
Halogen protectors do not work well for HIDs. They have very different light dispersion characteristics.
Fair enough. Thats what I though but wasn't sure.
Thank you all for your help. I really do appreciate it. Like I said I am still a newb to this whole mod thing. So I've got a thing or two to learn.
However, unfortunately I'm going to be blinding people for about two weeks before I can afford to get some new projectors. Thank goodness I don't drive at night that often.
HID's are awesome. You should either get some for your fogs too or maybe just some yellow bulbs to do them justice. Sorry about the coolant leak. Maybe someone can chime in and help.
do you not have a sunroof? (sig pic)
