Not those actual ones - I bought mine from eBay. They are very easy to fit, as as are the bulbs once the headlights are out of the car. I took advantage when the bumper was off and replaced headlight bulbs, indicator bulbs & ballasts (one was flickering).

Just make sure you get the ones for adaptive or non-adaptive depending upon your car as they are different.

Mines are adaptive will get a look. What did you pay for your ones on ebay?

A lot more than that ! The PN I bought was 8E0941329A I bought them from Lichtex on eBay.

I have a spare at work on Monday I will find you the MM numbers on it. Long story short Audi replaced a headlight under warranty in 2015 and unbeknownst to me also replaced the ballast so when I changed the ballasts in 2018 I kept the 2015 ballast.

This is what I bought - AL D1S 1307329154 Xenon Scheinwerfer Steuergerät für Audi A3 A4 TT 8E0941329A

Looking on Amazon the ones you have found seem to say without curve lighting. Do you lights go up down when you start (in which case I think those ones will work) or up/down/left/right in which case they won't as that is what they mean by curve lighting.

I currently have the headlight fault light on mines so they go up and do to level but they are the adaptive ones. I'll get the proper code from the ballasts need to remove the headlights. That link doesn't seem to work. Thanks for your input

Hey, i have replaced one xenon ballast in my audi rs4 b7 2006.
My headlights are AFS adaptive so i have to get the AFS ballast, this is the part number that i used in mine 1 307 329 154.
The difference between AFS ballast and the audi's non AFS headlights is that the AFS has a bigger connector and plug.
After replacing the ballast , the headlight needs to be reprogrammed with a diagnostic tool.
You should better stick with a used oem ballast
I bought mine from ebay for 90 euros used in good condition from germany plus 10 euros shipping to greece.
I used to have the same problem with you and get the fault light when the ignition was on , not even started the engine.
