Tools Needed:
A drill
1″ hole saw
T27 Torx bit and driver with a 4″ extension
Extendable magnet
Pliers
or A drill with a smaller bit such as a 1/4″ A dremel or similar to cut a hole in plastic T27 Torx bit and driver with 4” extension Extendable magnet Pliers
1. Take the kit out of the box and lay everything out. You can install either the ballasts or bulbs first but typically it is easier to install the bulbs first.
2. There are 3 T27 torx screws holding the headlight on. The 2 on top are visible in this picture.
3. with the 2 screws remove.
4. The third screw is shown here. A long extension is needed to get to it and an extendable magnet is helpful to retrieve the screw (or bit if it falls).
5. Disconnect the headlight and turn signal connectors and remove the headlight by pulling it toward the outside of the car and toward you.
6. Drill a 1” hole in the center of the cap as shown. If you use a hole saw that will be all you need. If you use the small drill bit you will need to use your dremel to cut a 1″ hole. You may want to use some sand paper just to smooth the edges you have cut.
7. Some of the bulbs come with adaptors that some other cars require. The Audi installation does not require them. Take your pliers and cut them off. This will allow you to remove the base of the bulb case later on. 8. Feed the AMP connector ends of the bulbs through the hole from the inside out and seat as shown. Seal the provided 1″ gasket in the hole you have made. You should have two connectors coming out of the same side as the bulb that will eventually connect to the OEM harness – these will be connected later. Leave the bulb in the case for now.
