Euro Xenons on the S4!
The S4 comes with excellent Xenon headlights but I just replaced them with even brighter European Xenon lights with the City Lights option (the low illumination/glow light that lights up the headlight when just the parking lights are on) and also it has CLEAR side markers. I really like this since it gives my car that cool monochromatic look. (Previously it had a bright orange side marker.) I also covered the lights in Xpel protective film to protect the investment. The install of everything took about 5 hours.
Here is a link to some before and after pictures.

Looking pretty smooth Brad!  I like it a lot. Does Audi make an Angel Eyes kit like they have for the BMW? That car would look way sweet with those. I'd like to figure out how to get the Integra to have those. lol

those look absolutely stunning!! These are "stock replacements", correct? (meaning they're made by Audi, not some 3rd party manufacturer)

Yes. They are made by Valeo, which supplies the original equipment lights as well.

Ok, I will get to that eventually. It's a small third light bulb tucked up inside the unit.

They are these really sweet fiber optic things that go around the head lights. Like this:

Kinda nifty looking, eh?

Why in general, would Audi et al, make different headlights for Europe and the USA, I cannot see (no pun) the sence in it.
Great work Brad
