god damn haters lol...Nah I am kidding. yeah basically I went with those because they were cheap and my stock headlights were cracked and I didnt want to short out any wiring with the wires being exposed to moisture. Those are for the time being I thought they were gonna look better but to me they look like bmw headlights and I cant have that. After christmas I am gonna switch. What do the rs4 headlights look like and where can I get them?

Yeah the lights at the top illuminate with the halos and led when I turn my park lights on.

Like this (these are on my car):



They're pretty much a two-piece version of Audi's one-piece lights. HID-ready, plug and play install, and I paid $148 shipped on eBay.

They don't look too bad, but I think the money could have been better spent on performance upgrades.

What year RS4 or S4 lights fit into a 98 A4 B5? What was your search criteria on Ebay?


My reasoning for these questions is that the oem headlights are suspect on my car. One side seems to work OK but the passenger side has an issue with having the bulb placement part come off and may not be on correctly. Still wish to improve the lights one way or another. Any other suggestions? JS

I like the devil eyes headlights; but I don't think they sell actual devil eyes for B5's.

Please explain what a CC mod means to the unwashed newbs?

And what is the difference between a "facelift" A4 versus a non-facelift. Thx. JS
