These Headlights cost something like $1,500 wholesale.  Still interested?

Need opinions,
So I'm talking to Doug Grey about HID lighting now that fall is approaching
and winter decends soon. We're talking about the A6 HID's path other
descirbed a few weeks ago by Bob and Igor (I think?)
Then I recall this email from Michael Schneider March 2001, where he wrote
to me about the Audi HID lights that were optional for the 1995-1997 S6. He
gave these part numbers below having purchased from a dealer in Germany.
So a reasonable man would ask this list for more input on this path. For the
Audi-fanatic seeking a true OEM HID  path, has anyone knowledge about these
P/N's and method?
I think, this Deutsche HID assembly even came equipped with self-leveling
stepper motors etc.
I go on to think, is it possible to use this on an 1992-1994 S4, by swapping
the clear lense from S6 to S4 Euro, to change the shape outside.
Opinions please.

Jeff Posto,
Are the headlights the same for the S6 and the S4 ? Close enough yeah,
however specifically different possibly. Wasn't there a face lift in 1995
to these cars ? Anyway .. The HID's were a option to the A6 / S6 cars in
Germany beginning in 1995 is my understanding.
On Friday night I'll be returning from a business trip and will gladly
forward the part numbers. I bought the HID assemblies from a Audi dealer in
Wiesbaden, Germany while in country having walked in off the street and
ordered the assemblies. Read, paid retail !!


Mike
