Default Spyder Projector Headlights? HELP!

Does anyone have these? I've never heard of this brand before. I found them
on:

http://www.andysautosport.com/audi/1...s/spyder_auto/

I have a white b5 a4 and i think the chrome/clear halo ones would fit the bill.

Any hints for headlights at all? I'm really kind of lost about what to do. Are most plug and play? The projectors are appealing to me, but I'm finding so many different styles and price ranges. HELP!

thanks,
Matt

I might be wrong but those are the same headlights found on eBay.

Never really had first hand experience with those but from what I know if you have two-piece headlights (99 B5 and below), you're gonna have to do some cutting on the fenders in order to fit the one piece headlights.

As for price ranges, I believe the E-Codes made by Valeo are probably the most expensive one piece. These E-Codes are the original headlights found on the European A4's, S4's, and RS4's with clear corners.

Yeah, you can get those on Ebay way cheaper. If you want to spend that much, there are some on Ebay that look like are very good quality for just a little bit more.

I think these might be better, because they don't require you to cut your factory wiring harness to make it work.

These seem to be pretty popular on ebay, this is a perfect price range
