    I turned my rear-lights into DRLs via vag-com; love the way the LED tails look, and have gotten many people who agree.

    kind of irrelevant to calbees post, but very relevant to calbees topic title...haha.

    It would be awesome if the a4 had these. Maybe in the mid-cycle refresh due next year; it would be very cool if they were same sized for retrofits.

    I do like the current led tails but they make me think of jackolanterns.

    Besides the A3, the A4's taillights are the weakest in Audi's lineup IMO...

    Yeah, what are the chances of that happening. I'd love to retro A8/A7 style tails into my 2009, though.

    just turn your lights on and go look at your own car...
    all it means is that my tails come on w/ the car, just like the LEDs up front. (license plate bulb too)

    i don't remember the vag-com coding, and i lost my cable so i can't check.....weak....it was just a check box though, in the lighting section somewhere...

    I believe the A4 rear light will be changed in its 2013 facelift.
