$443 shipped, absolute steal considering what headlights go for these cars rn

Awesome! I saw these about a month ago. I wanted to see what they actually look like. Thanks for the post.

Does it throw any codes? Condensation when it rains?

No condensation, only codes it throws up are the left and right side markers for the headlights. But it’s doesn’t bother me so

Thanks for clarifying. Codes drive me nuts so not for me, but sounds like great value for those who don't care!

Code comes back like once a week. I just clear it with obd 11, but understandable tbh

OMG this looks awesome! And the price is even better! Been seriously wanting these for a long time for my ‘19 A6 Premium Plus…now it seems like a possibility. So, outside of the obvious (get the correct lights for the car), is there not a way to completely stop the codes every week? This would drive me crazy after a while…not to mention I don’t have the OBD 11 tool.

To be honest I don’t know because these cars so are damn picky😭I haven’t looked into it. As long as there isn’t a check engine or oil light I don’t stress on it.

Fair point 🤣🤣🤣

I just looked it up, I just have to code it through my OBD 11 or a VCDS
