Can you post a link to the headlights you're considering? It might make a difference.

I'm fairly sure they will fit or at least you'll be able to make them fit. There's some noise floating around that supposedly the corners are different on the fenders, but I really can't seem to spot the difference.

The hood, bumper and fenders are different on the face lifted cars (02+). So although you could make them fit, I don't believe they will just bolt in. The only headlights from an 02+ car I know will bolt up are allroad headlights.

Call an autobody shop that specializes in euro cars and ask them. They can look it up in their database.

The allroad headlights, in my opinion, are the best looking OEM C5 A6 headlights. They are, however, hard to come by. I would get some if I could.
