jamieg Posted July 15, 2009 Report Share Posted July 15, 2009 Hi I've searched this forum but can't find anything about the A4 B7. Does anyone know if there is a direct replacement headlight for the standard light to the new eyeline headlights for the A4 B7 model (57 plate - Sept 07) or if no direct replacement if there is a retrofit version that looks the same as the current A4's lights, same eye shape from the LED's? Cheers in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't however seen anyone doing the new look lights for the B7 model yet though. I would have thought FK or Inpro would be your best bets but neither of them have anything yet.

micalee Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 http://lltek.com/PRS_bin/prs_186_led_headlights_lighting_audi_upgrades.htm March 19, 2009 - E-code LED Headlights with HID for Audi A4 B5, A4 B6, A6 C5 and TT 8N It's been a long time coming - but they're here. LLTeK received its first consignment of lighting upgrades for older and current Audi A4 and A6 and TT models recently. They were carefully unpacked and sent to the LLTeK test bench to verify operability. Next, the lights were installed in Audi cars to see how the LEDs functioned in real time. Wiring configurations were documented and later adjusted at the factory to ensure LLTeK customers are buying "Plug-and-Play" product designed for North American cars (note: North American cars do have slightly different wiring) but LLTeK will stock models for euro-spec wiring. These super-bright units represent an exciting improvement for drivers - they are manufactured to e-code specifications, so they have tight, highly-focused beam patterns (LLTeK will be offering the HID versions exclusively). In addition, the integrated, driver-activated LEDs, which can function as Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) look great and provide visibility to oncoming traffic a long way off. Daytime and Nightime safety factors count. Photo above is euro-spec driver side headlight with S-Yo bulb in the corner (silver/yellow-orange). These units are factory-modified to work seamlessly with North American wiring harnesses. The improvements produced by LLTeK's e-code headlights go far beyond cosmetic considerations. However, there are aesthetic benefits also. Each set of headlights will come with a set of S-Yo clear corner turn signal bulbs. This means compliance with orange turn signals without an orange bulb. The silver-colored coating provides the "euro" clear corner look but the S-YO bulb flashes yellow/orange turn signals to meet safety and xxxxxx issues. The high beams are equipped with our super bright "Super Plazma" bulbs. Replace your current headlights with HID e-code high performance lighting now. Benefits of High Performance LED plus HID Lighting Headlights HID "plug and play" power equipped. Xenon=increased safety. High beams come with "super Plazma" bulbs installed. e-code means tighter focus and projector beam concentration. S-YO equipped turn signal bulbs eliminate orange in the corners. LEDs=increased safety. Documented superiority to halogen lighting. Improved night driving over old yellow and pitted lens covers. Superior design, look and function The LED style lighting option include choice between chrome and black finishes, but all meet e-code projector standards - Audi A6 C5 (passenger) illustrated. Note the silver S-YO bulb (left hand corner). A couple of days after sending out a set of these new headlights to a customer who owns an Audi A6 (2001), we received an e-mail that reads - "Thanks again for the ... headlights they look awesome, everything works great." We are expecting more images at some point as per his communication, but we are truly pleased when things go smoothly because that's what every customer wants. Photo of the e-codes tested at LLTeK on March 9, 2009 - the car is a denim blue A4 B6 2002 modified with a Hofele RS Four conversion. Now added - HIDs; LED DRLs; and S-YO clear corners. North American DRL Activation Options Activate the DRL manually by selecting the parking-light position Activate the DRL automatically by turning on the headlight Optional user selection so that DRL turns on when car is started. S-YO silver bulbs maintain the clear finished look. note 1 - All Canadian cars in the A4 B5 series (pre-facelift) will need to make a minor modification to connect the current VRD (voltage reduction device) in order to use the headlight. note 2 - When the headlights are ordered for countries outside North America - LLTeK will rewire back to European standards at no cost. Details on pricing and first shipment landing will be made available soon. If you have questions regarding these modifications for your Audi - please call and speak with an LLTeK Rep who can answer with first hand knowledge or prepare a quotation for your project. You are always welcome to call toll-free 1 888 465 5835 or International 001 514 733 6333 if you have any questions.

jamieg Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 You cant have looked very far then... I haven't however seen anyone doing the new look lights for the B7 model yet though. I would have thought FK or Inpro would be your best bets but neither of them have anything yet. Cupramax - I did have a really good look, but using the search facility is only as good as the search criteria, maybe using eyelids eyelines eyelashes didn't hit the nail on the head. So is my car an B7 or B8 does anyone know, is there a way of seeing this? it's a 57 plate from Sept 07? Cheers micalee, I had seen that website but I was really after the same shape and ones that looked identical to the audi standard ones rather than something that looks similar or that just had LED's in.

Look at the VIN plate in the windscreen - if it starts something like WAUZZZ8E then it's a B7, but if it starts something like WAUZZZ8K then it's a B8.

What's wrong with the LL-Tek ones posted already? (assuming you don't have adaptive Xenons). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say I don't personally like the look in the LL - Tek lights, I much prefer the standard Audi ones where the LED's start in the middle of the light and not the bottom, just darn sexy really....

But Audi don't make headlights with the LED strips that will fit either the B6 or B7... So if someone REALLY wants the LED DRL strips on a B6 or B7, then they have to go for an aftermarket item.

PetrolDave Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 do Audi make them No they don't. or does someone sell the same design elsewhere. The B8 design physically won't fit a B7 or a B6, so the best you can get is something like the LL-Tek units which are their "interpretation" of what Audi might have done IF they had made LED DRL headlights for the B6 and B7.

maersk Posted July 18, 2009 Report Share Posted July 18, 2009 At the risk of being flamed.......................... why do you want them................................ I don't think they add anything, and as a biker, the fact that everybody has DRLs means more bkers will die..................................... Sorry mate didn't see ya..........thought you were an Audi,Volvo,Saab etc.........................................................................
