New lights through old windows (2)



Hi all,

After all the headlight woes, there's good news for some of us. I read in
Auto, Motor und Sport that the Audi Cabriolet, based on the old 80, has
been upgraded with DE lights. These can be retrofitted to all post-91 Audi
80/90 models as a straight swap, and to all 86-91 Audi 80/90s by fitting
the new bonnet (hood). I'm not sure if you need new wings (fenders) for
this too. This should be a very worthwhile upgrade, because DE units are
about the best you can buy beside  Xenon. The thick lens focuses the light
to a very concentrated dot, which is *much* more effective than ordinary
H4. Boy, wish I had a new model 80- I'd buy these in a flash...

I don't know anything about part #s, prices or availability, but I will try
to find out.
