New A4 Headlights.....

[ademirden]

Hi all,

I wonder if the new A4's headlights (in the pic below) will fit into my 2007 B7 A4 ? The new one seems very nice because of the led's.



This is my ride..



I havent checked anything.. I was just wondering..
The shape seems nearly the same..

Thanks for the answers..

[scottykenneth]

nope

[ademirden]

Why not? :)
Does it need any change on the front bumper? Or what else ?

The cars are completely different. Just by looking at the pictures you should be able to see they don't fit. There are a few options of putting in your own LED's into your current headlights but it is a custom job. No companies have made LED headlights for the B7.

[Sharkfin]

no they won't be everyone keeps asking if they will...

[ItsThat2.0T]

I understand the curiosity if they fit, but honestly they looking nothing even close to being similar.

What do you mean? Both are mounted on the front of the car, provide light, and it looks like they are both made from a clear material that allows said light to pass through. I say go for it.

[jimmya4]

this is dumb they arent even close to being similiar. might as well put a8 lights on the car. lets just make round jeep headlights fit

[NorcalPB]

Do you guys think there will ever be an a4/a5 style headlight to come out for the b7? I've been checking ebay and these styles are there for b5s iirc and I think it would be such a great alternative to depo's.....angel eyes....

wow

[nycmalu]

wow

If you took me seriously, and honestly couldn't detect any sarcasm then "wow " to you too...

[KMHPaladin]

Sure, they're both A4s, right?

Here's a better question: If we took the internals of the B8 headlights, specifically the projectors, LEDs and turn signal bulbs, could they be retrofitted in the B7 housings? I know they won't be a direct swap and modifications should be made, but can it be done?

[supamannn99]

i thought someone has already asked this question

[Sharkfin]

they have multiple times, beating a dead horse until more time has passed for R&D on an aftermarket set, OEM will not fit

[fromGMCtoAUDI]

i thought someone has already asked this question

Are you referring to the OP's question, or my "better" question?

Obviously the B8 headlights won't fit because of the different shape, but what about what I asked? ^^

[Turn10]

I want similar lights for my B7, but sadly no those wont fit. You can just tell by looking at the pictures so stop the debate. They will probably make similar lights for the B7 because (correct me if im wrong) they make them for the B6 and B5. So I advise just wait or go to a custom shop and see if they are capable of the job.

[ademirden]

Thanks for the answers & also sorry if this has been asked before (i am new to the forum)

Also I wonder if there is a stoplight set with leds for B7?

[redlabel81]

Nope.........Someone made some customs with the Allroad tails. Search and you will find.

One of my friends has build a set of S5 headlights into his a6 headlights. So everything is possible

Anything is possible for the right amount of $$$, give me a couple thousand dollars and I'll find a way to make it fit. But seriously if you think you can just drop in a new set of headlights from another model of car and make it fit into your own with very little modification then you need some glasses.

[gervi]

^ Oh yea that Avant is probably the most sexiest looking example of its kind. This coming from someone who isn't really into Avants but I would drive that beast anytime.

I didn't say it was easy or cheap, just that it's possible

MY GOD!

oh my god i got to change my pants

Anyone else notice it's weird that only one of the strips of LED's on the A4 pic in the first post are lit up??

Didn't notice that, i would think that it would be lit up at the same time.

[KMHPaladin]

I believe when the car is signalling a turn, that side's LED strip is deactivated to prevent confusion. Something to that extent.

Luckily i was able to "copy" the TT-S LED design, instead of the curvatures that the A4 or the new A3 is sporting. Yes anything is possible. Some may not like it- but i tried to do it as clean as possible. Here's my humble A3.

Uhm, seriously, details... If it has been posted, I apologize, but tell me what key words to search for so I can find more info about this car (other than "sex on wheels", it didn't work too well)... And yes, I reposted the pictures because the second page deserves some love too...

P.S. - Someone neg repped me for my first post in this thread. Obviously, some people don't have any sense of humor <---- SARCASM!

[Allan T]

You can't read about this car on Audizine, but i will talk to him about joining the site. If you understand Danish you can read about the project at this site:

Man I love that Car!! Only thing bugging me is that the Sideskirts looks like they're not straight. Same goes for the lower part of the front. Have many bumps in them. Is this correct Allan?

The sideskirt is straight it's the lighting that make it look like bumps.

I don't understand Danish at all, but I looked through all 8 pages of that thread. And all I have to say at the end of that is... The last few have more to do with the fact that my car will never be that sick...

[eskimopunk]

that is the sexiest god damn mother fucking avant i've ever seen lol

[audidrver]

Definitely my new favorite avant. No. favorite Audi!! Was the blue wide body b6. Has a lot of the stuff I have wanted to do and then 10times more. Not a fan of everything, but overall stunning.
