I'm getting my ecode hid housings today... should be coming ups here pretty soon. They're RS4 replica's, not the real thing, but pretty close, made by Depo (the headlight company). I've got my yellow car so I thought the RS4 black housing would be the best match to make it look the best, and the ecode HID is the key part On order are the 6000K bulbs and ballasts, from visionbulbs.com.

I'll post pics when I get them in.... Yay!

 

i cannot wait for pics, should be a killer set up

 

If you don't mind my asking, who'd you get them through? I was contemplating whether or not to get Black Housings for my car, or Chrome... I really like the look of the Black Housings though.

 

ya the black is what comes stock on the RS4 European models. I got them from ebay (CAREFUL! there are very few actual ecodes on ebay, but there's alot of SH!TTY housings.) from a company called Makoto Auto; ebay name: makotoautotrends. they are a US manufacturer that custom produces RS4 replica housings that are engineered to fit the earlier model b5's without any fabrication to the front end. (which you have to do with the one pieces). They are pre-made ready for HID's with mounting points for the ballasts. I'm going to be getting the 6000K setup from visionbulbs.com when i get the money! They're already on order I jsut need to pay them [&:]

I'll post some real pics when they get here sometime today.

Check em out and you'll really like them, here's a pic from the page:

I have ordered from them before! Lol, back when I had my first integra, and if I remember correctly, they were awesome to deal with. How much did you end up paying for them?!

Edit: Was it the $279.99 advertised on their site, or cheaper?

 

Would those fit a 99.5+?

 

Those are really sharp, I wonder how they would look on a my black A4, I may have to do some photoshop work

 

I think they'd fit a 99.5..... They aren't one peices, they come as the headlight assembly separate from the corners, so it's a two peice unit. If you're 99.5 is a two peice they'd totally fit. I ended up paying only 150 WITH shipping from their ebay auction. plus the cost of Sylvania Silverstar H7's total cost was 190 ($40 for the high beam bulbs) I only bought one pair of bulbs since I'll be getting my HID's soon, so I put them in the low beam projector

Biggest problem I've had with them is the corner lenses have a different size plug than my wire end has. Might be my year car, might be the cornere lens who knows.... so I'll be messing with that tomorrow. Thats why in the pics you don't see any corner lights, cause they're not hooked up.

Here are some pics!!! (please no one flame my bumper.... I know it's all F'd up cause last time I went surfing i drove on the beach like an idiot and tore the corners off....)
