I am still looking for the headlights....can only find them for newer a6s and older a4s......nothing my year a6.....unless the a4s around my year have the same bracket and headlight setup as my car? Does anybody know if that's the case?

Ok so i installed the devils eyes in my car, and at first i was impressed, very nice look to them. but then i drove past a new audi... and low and behold the leds are WAY brighter than mine, as well as there are more of them. But im not all frowns, they're better than my stock looks wise and they're alot brighter as well.

Heres a couple quick pics i took... Sorry about size and quality

I like them alot, Where they a pain to install or did they mount right up, cause I have after market HID lights in my car and hate them and want the R8 Led style, I was just worried that if its coming off ebay it wouldnt match up well...

ya they were no hassle to install really. I had a little trouble aiming them low enough so i'm not beaming everyone with just my headlights, however that was only on the drivers side, my mounts could be messed on the car, the wiring was the only thing that took me a bit, i had to figure out which wires did what.
I just unhooked the marker running lights and hooked that wire onto the leds and then just highbeam to highbeam and so on...

I would like to get my fog lights disconnected from being running lights so its just my leds but they're behind alot of junk so i didnt bother. They only cost me around 300 as well. Sad the headlights arent blue tho

All in all they're growing on me, alot

Those are the exact same lights I just bought two days ago. Can't wait for them to get here. Alil sad to here you mention they aren't as bright, but I have noticed their are a few brands, and the original helix ones are the brightest, some of the others are actually blue.

You could just buy brighter LED's online and manually replace them, but it'd probably be a pain in the a$$.

Get some HID's for that thing. I also ordered a set of 5000K HID's for those lights and my fogs. I see you have done the fog light mod, and I'm doing that tomorrow, but the reason I got the HID's for my fogs is so that they'll match the driving lights when they are on. You're look kind of funny not matching right now.

Hoping this will update the look of the vehicle a tad bit. Also planning on buying LED tail lamps, but haven't found a set I like yet.

Looks sweet, glad I checked up on this thread. I'll post up my pictures when mine get here.
