www.hidplanet.com is a great place to get that info. I have A6 projectors retrofitted into my lights and the output is great.

whoa....

thats a little beyond my capabilities. I really don't like the look of it. I think the rims are way too big and that bumper looks like it belongs on a bigger car. Let me know if you find a site that explains that to you. Are you doing this for the look or the light output. You can get the same or maybe ever better light ourput if you do a retrofit into OEM housings.

Already done with that. Retroffitted S4 projectors into Sonar projectors. Now I run d2s bulbs in OEM housing. I'll run HID's for the rest of my life now. That whole car is photoshopped. I just want the lights. I'm actually not looking forward to going back to projectors but I love the look of those TL lights. Who knows body work?
