    A3 headlights

    Are there someone in here who know if A3 Cabs headlights will fit the A3? I know that the hood and front bumper is shaped different but there could be a chance that it might fit anyway. Anybody tried?

    Hope you find some soon. If I find someone myself i'll buy them no matter what, I guess it's not the biggest modification.

    Rumor has it that it may require a new hood to fit the redesigned headlights. Of course, no one knows whether it will fire up the leds either. Can't wait for the retrofit attempts!

    Totally impossible to find them.

    I noticed not even the dealership had a new A3 sportback in his showroom. I was very curious and wanted the take a closer look to that car.

    Of course I couldn't resist to investigate if the new LED headlights fit the prefaclift A4 8P.

    Electrically it's not a big deal but from the mechanically view: No-go!

    -> New bumper definitely
    -> New hood or welding job
    -> The piece that holds the radiator new
    -> New paint for bumper and hood

    Sorry for these news...
