Thank you Volkan!

Volkan Soyler says:

I like your Job my Friends 😉

Retrofitlab says:

You’re welcome my friend :-)

Awesome video. Exactly what I wanted to see.

Retrofitlab says:

I’ve taken a look at the pictures but I can not see much on them, sorry. Maybe just drive by your local Audi dealer?

Dr Black says:

I probably have a different model or year I’m not sure, I appreciate you taking time to respond to my inquiries. If you have some spare time I decided to take four photo’s of what I’m working with. The 3rd picture is of the casing removed and my access to the bulb.

Retrofitlab says:

That’s very weird Nick, sometimes wires are in the way, tried to move them a bit?

Dr Black says:

I mean the lights look just like that. I don’t understand why even with a LED flashlight I can’t locate the bolts shown in the video.

Dr Black says:

Turns out dude who owned it before me installed HID lights. It has no visible bolts down in there to remove the whole fixture and I have to basically change the bulb from its set position after removing a plastic casing.

Retrofitlab says:

They are there, but a bit hidden. Maybe try to locate them using a bright flashlight?

Dr Black says:

I can’t seem to find any bolts behind down in there what so ever… its the front left. I got the two on top… Just wont come out and can’t locate a 3rd let alone a 4th bolt.

Ja Sli says:

Very nice of you. Thanks alot 🙂

Retrofitlab says:

There are some sharp edges which can damage the paint, the tape prevents that.
Bulbs are easy to change, just unclip them and take them out, reverse to place new bulbs 🙂

Ja Sli says:

Why do you use tape to take out the head lights? And how do I change the light bulbs themselves? 🙂

Retrofitlab says:

Yes you are right, the first headlight we did with painter tape but then the roll was finished 😉

Eric Kilpatrick says:

With the exception of using Duct Tape, this was a good vid. Use painter tape instead…

Retrofitlab says:

Just a normal tool, with extension 🙂

Jay Budd says:

I had to take my intake out lol, my torx driver was too short. What exact tool are you using?

Retrofitlab says:

Yes it’s the same 🙂

Andrew Pavon says:

this may seem like a dumb question but, is it the same way on the B6 S4?

sonofagun07 says:

Thank you so much!! :)

Mário Menezes says:

is torx T30…)

Retrofitlab says:

Not sure, just try 🙂

Mário Menezes says:

Torx … what number? T….?

Retrofitlab says:

You have to use Torx keys.

Retrofitlab says:

as far as I know it don’t, for the B7 you have to remove the bumper.

Mário Menezes says:

The video is fantastic. Congratulations. What is the key used?

thanks

Retrofitlab says:

Protecting against possible scratches.

– I have an Audi A4 .. Whats with the tape ?

Jay Budd says:

Well no duh, its the body model that changes things not the model/engine size

electro1999 says:

I have an Audi a4 1.8 and it`s the same way to change it

Retrofitlab says:

Sorry I can’t tell, only have experience with this Audi so far…

Zack K says:

Is the procedure the same with a 2005 A6 Quattro or I have to take the bumper out ? thanks , great video btw

Zack K says:

Hey, great video btw. Does this also work on a 2005/2006 Audi A6 or you must take the bumper off ? mine is a Quattro and I will like to replace the stock with the aftermarket . thanks

Jwilkey says:

Okay awesome thanks for the speedy response!

Retrofitlab says:

I don’t know for the B7… I think you need to remove the bumper on the B7 but I’m not sure. If you want to paint the inside you have to “bake” your headlights. We have different video’s showing that process, for example the VW T5 projector retrofit video.

Jwilkey says:

Is this the same process for a B7 a4? Great video by the way! also, I am trying to paint my light on the inside how do I take the cover off?

Retrofitlab says:

Should work, yes!

Nigel Mirfield says:

sweet jesus! doing it this way looks way better than the ol’bumper removal. can this be done on the b6 4.2 s4 aswell?
