Default Do you want HID??

The HID system in Audi's uses a different housing altogether from the non-HID lights. If you have a V6 A6 and are looking to convert to HID's I have a set of headlamps with bulbs and ballasts I will trade or sell. Let me know if you are interested. I work at an Audi Dealership.

if you just get the HID bulbs everything will melt or at least get messed up because they are too much for the stock wiring. pmed you back
