Xenon Retrofit, CC mod, Blackout housings, Painted Reflectors

[mrmeth90]

Just got my BiXenons this week from Jens(mad Props) Painted and CCed now being installed while car is in the shop for color matching reflectors.
Also changed out the fogs for Pure Yellow from ECS. Pretty amped to see the final product.
The guy at audi told me as long as I was upgrading to an AUDI OEM product I would not have to mess with the VAG. So If someone can enlighten me on this I would appreciate it, and if someone in Vegas has a VAGCOM please hook it up, or would audi service vag it for me(minus ambers, and whatever else i want?) TIA

PICTURES WILL BE POSTED TONIGHT

Speaking about ECS, did they take forever with your order? I placed my order about a month ago and kept checking status and it was a constant "product Inbound". After numerous calls, I get an email saying my order wont ship out until August 25! Im like WTF! I still havent received a call back from them.

Yeah they are the Ziza fogs. Took about 5 days from ECS if I remember correctly. Ive heard that the effectiveness of the yellow fogs is better than stock, so i wanted to give it a shot, if no good, switch to xenon match.
hopefully ill have the car in 5 hours.

In order to have the high beams function correctly you need to vag it to xenons from halogens. The codes are listed in the $20 ebay cable walkthrough thread. SEARCH

Thanks for the kind words, stock performance is killing me I think next purchase is chip and intake. Really would like to grab the coilovers, sways, and some spacers just not ready to drop 2g's at once.

The black housings look great on your phantom black.

Well when I did the retrofit with ecodes two weeks ago and wired them under the dash to use high beams. Then I recoded to USA xenons settings in the vag com which took like a minute. If all your bulbs are working and the high beams are working there is really no need to change the settings as I see it.

Those look really good.

Did you just recently buy those from Jens? Were these the ones that were from two different cars?

i ran them without getting vagged just to test which just sparked up some other problems, i eventually sorted it out but long story short i pretty much fried my harness.

Are your Predator?

[mrmeth90]

im getting into contact with a vag controller in a few days/
Is this the code to change to xenons from my halogens?(01021)
I found this in the $20 Vag thread, but i wanted to make sure thats the code when switching lights. The thread says its to turn off ambers/
TIA
