Default Installing black euro projector headlight units

Just wondering if anyone has done this mod? and how easy it is or isn't ? quite frankly the headlights are crappy on the 99's and i found these on ebay for a decent price w/ bulbs. and the HID upgrades are far too expensive for me right now. ( college)

the two piece ones would be an easier install i think... they should be easy to find on ebay for less than 200... good luck

I had black euro projector headlights with the angel eye "halos" on my previous honda. They were about the same price as what that ebay listing was - the thing is --- they cost only that much because they're cheap. The halo's around the bulbs would keep going out, and the build quality of the lights in general is just really bad.

However, I do think they look nice, and for that price, hey why not. Just make sure to keep your old stock headlights somewhere safe for when the aftermarkets break.

As for the install, it's pretty easy, just have to take off the bumper - that's probably the hardest part.

I had those exact same healights on my 96 A4.


I liked the projection they did. I think its alot better then my stocl one pieces on my 99.5 a4


Unless you know wiring skip it. You have to splice into Turn Signals for power (for the angel eyes) Unless you run wires to front and place a switch inside car.

I'll prolly get some soon. Dont like my one piece ones
