Does anybody know if the facelift rear lights will plug straight onto a 2008 RS6 ??

Suggest to check part numbers first... in theory rear of the car is more or less std as conventional A6.
2008 RS6 Avant (Monza Silver)
- Stage II MRC tune with gearbox (720PS/850Nm)
- MIJ Powerflow exhaust (non-res)
- H&R ARBs

You need the 2008 version as the LED structure is slightly different so the lights would glow differently

That's what I was told when my N/S/R light went kaput

One of mine is dim, so I suspect a dry joint somewhere.
Looks like it's either re-solder or new light!!
