New owner questions



     Greetings -
     
        Having recently re-entered the Audi world, I have a couple of 
     questions about my 86 4000 quattro. 
     
     1. I am very familiar with Porsche parts, and there is a company 
     called Performance Products - that sells just about everything (but 
     really high prices) for Porsches, and has a very good catalog with 
     lots of information  about applications , and so forth. Is there such 
     a thing for Audis?? If not, what is a good source for parts - both OEM 
     and aftermarket??
     
     2. I want to upgrade the headlights, but I have been told that the 
     first step I must take is to upgrade the circuit to the headlights, as 
     most times, a 4000's headlights are not getting sufficient voltage as 
     is, and adding higher wattage bulbs will only exacerbate the problem - 
     not make the lights any brighter at all. 
     
     3. I'm not sure I like the red dashboard lights - is there an easy way 
     to get more light in there?? (Other than a flashlight??)
     
     Thanks!
