In der Fahrschule wurde mir damals beigebracht sich bei blendenden Autos auf den rechten Fahrbahnrand zu orientieren, nicht reinzustarren.
Can confirm replaced 1 headlight, front bumper and fenders - of course all aftermarket through insurance. IIRC the claim was $4300.
Just did the almost the same thing on my A6, Mint used headlight off ebay was $1000 bucks, being in the winter my headlights modules started going out so i bought 3 working ones for $300 off ebay
I can buy an entire second hand car for the cost of an audi matrix headlight. I can see fine out of my classic headlight (€229 for complete brand new saab 900 headlight at r&d carparts). It is real glass so it never fades and a fresh bulb is litterally a couple cents.
Though in my opinion, it's not the best looking Audi headlight. Although functionally/technologically inferior to this, my vote goes to B8 A4 HID headlights with that curved row of individual LEDs. It was characterful, and had exquisite design elements inside of it that worked in harmony with the lines that travelled around the car. Headlights in cars of that era were simple and boring and at best consisted of a round projector and another reflector for high beams plus indicators. B8 A4's HID lights were at a totally different level and shouted style and luxury. With these lights Audi started the game of DLR and using it as a design signature.
Peak Audi headlights are the S5 B8.5 headlights.
So peak that even aftermarket headlights for other cars call them "Audi style headlights" just like the Ferrari style or Lamborghini style headlights.
They are so iconic and unique that you see them and you immediately think audi.
Crazy smooth. Not as much pick up as the X5 (because of the electric part of the engine) I was looking at first but once the turbo kicks in it sound and feels great. Turbo lag is a drag. By the way I did the headlight upgrade. Definitely worth it
Picture 1 is Audis LED headlight, while the later is a standard Xenon/Halogen set up. The Xe/Ha is cheaper to maintain, but the lifespan is a fraction of the LED. The LED headlight lifespan is said to be years of constant use without issue(20,000+ hrs). The downside to LED is if something does go wrong with the headlight, you cant just replace the LED, you replace the whole unit($1,000+ USD if not under warranty)
I think they're shit. The tabs started snapping off a light as it was sitting on my kitchen table.
I have bosche oem lights and they have very poor performance at night.
