Headlights conversion

I did this conversion using 1977 or 78 Audi 5000 brackets welded to the
stock 4kq supports. A bit of front support trimming, grill trimming, along
with a bit of relaying and wiring and you're done. It worked out great.
I think Quantums/Passats actually came with quad roundies for a year or so.
It might be worth going to the dealer to see if they still sell brackets. I
don't remember the year(s), trim levels, or the markets in which they were
available, but I'm pretty sure they exist. So it MIGHT be possible to find a
stock "kit" if you're REALLY lucky.
Anyone have a better memory of this than I do?
But, I'd say that you're 99% likely to end up with a "custom" set up!
Cheers,
Brady
