Euro Lights?

[John Cody Forbes]

I've had a non-turbo 5000 with and without euro's as well as a turbo with 
and without euro's. In both cases the US-spec lights are horrible and the 
euro's are amazing. If turbo euro's are out of the budget I would consider 
changing to a non-turbo grille and euro lights, but do be aware that even 
though non-turbo euro's are better than US-spec turbo lights turbo euro's 
are even better than non-turbo euro's.

Currently my white 5ktq has US spec lights and my black one has euro's. In 
the white car even with the high beams on you can see that the lights on the 
car behind me are so much brighter that there is actually a shaddow in front 
of the Audi. In my black car the euro low beams are brighter and light more 
road than the high beams on the white car. The euro high beams if shined 
directly at the sun would cause an eclipse if you were on another planet on 
the opposite side on the sun ;-).
