HID Conversion walkthrough

fixed, thanks.
 
great post. I have been looking for a good step by step info sheet!

Is it possible to use the stock 98-99 headlights? Does it look as good?
 
I think Tuners should support the pictures for the tech articles... do they not?

If no, in two years half of all the visual referance will be red x's. Seems important. :confused:
 
Sorry Hokie, I stuck them there until I could find a better place. The pictures should work again (again).
 
So what did you do about that whole thing how our lights aren't built for HID bulbs?

Sure, it is. That's why we allow you to attach photos to just about any posting. A lot of sites don't do that.
 
Does anybody have pics of the finished result in stock headlamps?

I am trying to decide if it is worth buying aftermarket housings or not. I really like the look of my 98-99 housings, but i really want a good hid light when i am done.

The projectors that were installed are HID projectors, so I didn't have to worry about that. They are the same projectors that come in the Audi A4, and mine are ECE spec, and can even be changed from left-hand to right-hand drive.

so the A4 projector's fit as a replacement for those aftermarkets crappy projectors? I've been contimplating this for a while (have the same headlights) put the rest of the artical up :) wana see how the final product turns out :)

goodluck :thumb:
 
I have the headlights sealed up and in the car now (looks amazing with the 2gb front bumper I put on at the same time), I just need to chase out some electrical gremlins and then I will post up the wiring harness part.

*edit* I have exorcised the demons, and the headlights are up and running. Unfortunately I am driving to New Mexico for the next few days, so pics and the rest of the walkthrough will have to wait until I get Internet there.
 
Well I have Internet again, and I finished the walkthrough. I'm very happy with the results, I just need to go back and do some finishing touches. I pointed out my mistakes in the walkthough so hopefully no one else makes them. Feel free to PM or emai me with questions, feedback, etc. :thumb:
