Hey guys - I just picked up an 2007 A6 4.2 S-line. Love the car, but I hate the fact I have Xeon headlights with regular yellow-ish fog lamps (I don't know why this is done) I would really like to put LED bulbs into the fogs and daytime runners to give it a more uniform look. Does anyone have any suggestions as the best brands or kits - from what I read some can give an error message.

Thanks in advance.

 

Congrats on the new motor.
I simply bought some bulbs on ebay.
It is a subtle change but I quite like the result.
Excuse the crappy pics...

 

Thanks. Looks good. Did you get an error message with just the bulb replacement? What brand did you use? and did you do the fogs as well?

Thanks

 

Happy to advise bulbs are error free.
Here is the bulb/seller info:

Have no info on the fogs.

 

I got The same bulbs from e-bay for my DRL and I did get the error message on my 2008TT. The seller reimbursed me 50% to compensate and I got some load resistor added to get rid of the error (50w 6ohm in parallel to each bulb). Takes 5 minutes to install.

As for the fog lights, I went with an halogen yellow bulb (Nokya Hyper Yellow 2500K)
Here is the results.

 

Beaven X5, Where did you get the load resistor? I'm having the same problem with my error light... are there specific ones for each car or no?

 

They are not really specific for the car. As long as the resistor is sufficient to fool the car computer.

I got them off e-bay in April off a seller called ehotseller06. The item description is: 2 X LED Turn Signal Load Resistor Blinker Fix 50W 6ohm and is currently being sold on e-bay under item # 121121416640 for $5.69 a set.

Jut make sure you mount the resistors against a metal part as it can generates a little heat that you don't want in the light housing. The wires are long enough for this.

 

Awesome, thanks a lot man!!
