[s-cars] Re: UrA6/UrS6 US DOT headlight

[Robert Welch]

Hey guys,

I'd just like to double check the obvious question regarding the group
purchase/ upgrade to Halogen Infrared Bulbs.....can I safely perform this
upgrade and not have the plastic reflector melt due to the increased heat of
the bulbs? I've read the posts and the URL's, I'd just like to confirm that
this simple upgrade replaces nothing but the bulbs, while the flimsy OEM
reflectors remain in place without melting down.

 I'm presuming someone has already 'been there done that".

Thanks a lot,

Yeh, like you said.  H1 low and 9005 (65 W) high.  The question is still,
why did you get an H1 low?  Igor, before you changed to Euro's what did your
97 S6 have for headlight bulbs?

Oops, I meant 9005 high.

P.S. Urs4.com is wrong on this and has reversed 9005 and 9006.
