    Talking NEW LED City Lights from Buttafuco

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I received a set of LED city lights, with resisitors, from Buttafuco to test on my car. The install was VERY easy! Just unplug your stock light bulbs and plug in the LED's. Mount the adhesive back resisitors to the stock headlight casing. It was VERY VERY sinomle and I had both installed in about 20 minutes on my HOT S4. (I installed them after a long drive this this weekend and S4 engines do run pretty hot)

    Anyway, Here are a few pics to show the difference. I personally love them and I have actually gotten a few compliments!

    Here you go:








    with the headights on:

    *** Edit *** since these pics,I have had my car Vag'd to eliminate the amber turn signals as well. It made this look 100 times better!

    I have a prototype set. It works amazingly! I can not wait for him to make more and get these out there. Finally, a good solution to the LED issue!

    Re: NEW LED City Lights from Buttafuco







    Here's pics of my 194 LED City Lights but I don't have the resistors because I'm not sure where I would install them because I read that they get really hot and not to put them next to plastic.

    So I live with 4 bulb out warning beeps and sign every time I put my car into Drive from Park....LOL. Somebody's got to create a mod so you don't have resistors on every bulb you put an LED on...LOL.

    What kind of fogbulbs do you run? The color was very different from the city lights. I have the Hoen ones and I hope they match better than that....?

    Stock oem halogen bulbs. I have yet to attempt to take the bumper off to change the fog lights because of the non-sline bumper. There was a write up about getting your hands behind and being able to change out the bulbs...good luck you have to have some seriously tiny hands to get in there.

    This is the only Audi I've owned that doesn't have HID fogs(real HID's not the hid look a like xenon blue bulbs) because of the fact the front bumper has to be removed. If I knew this ahead of time I would have waited for a s-line model

    I'm talking about the fogs. They should be fine. I'll keep an eye though. Thanks!
