[s-cars] Junkyard diving Euro style - calling any euro listers!

[Tom Winter]

Hello all - 

I've got a couple of extended trips to Europe this winter, the first to
Austria for about 15 days and then again to Switzerland for approximately
the same amount of time.

I was thinking about trying to find some used Euro lights for my S6 Avant
('95) on the trip. Worthy upgrade, yes? I have no problems with my high
beams, it's the low beams I want to enhance, as I drive with the fogs on
pretty much all the time at night due to the crappy performance of the low
beams.

I'm looking for advice/suggestions and part numbers.

I figure if I can find some at a junkyard for a reasonable price, I can ship
them home quite easily.

Anyone done this? Ideas, suggestions, strategies?

In Austria I'll be in Wels and in Switzerland I'll be traveling in and out
of Zurich, but mostly in the Graubunden region (where I saw a sweet early
RS2 Avant on my travels last year and which didn't move the entire duration
of my stay, I'm still wishing I put a note on it. . ."if you ever want to
sell your car. . . .LOL!).

Thanks in advance for help, etc.
