Well, I've agreed with just about everything Ti has said
about the A4 to date.  Of course, since we both bought one,
that shouldn't be much of a surprise.

But I've gotta disagree here.  Low beam *pattern* is perfect,
IMO.  But low beam *intensity* is pitiful.  High beams could
stand a bit more power, too.  IMHO.  So I'd be interested in
hearing about A4 lighting solutions.

BTW, what about the fog lights on the A4?  Is that yet another
element built into the same bulb, or is it a separate bulb?
