Headlamp

Post by carlssonaero » Tue Feb 06, 2018 9:42 pm

Does anyone know if the c5 A6 cars had the same headlamps as our C5 RS6's and whether the l;amps on the Avants were different from the saloons.

thanks all

The v8 have different shaped headlights to the other A6. The RS6 has bi-xenon. If you can find a headlight from a V8 A6 with bi-xenon then it'll probably fit. Probably.

Maybe they just won't admit it.
