Default Replacing standard headlights for xenons w/ LEDs?

Recently got handed down a 2010 Audi A4 Premium Quattro with the sports package, and not plus with LEDs, etc. Found xenon lights on eBay but it said it is only possible to use them if I had the HID set, and not the basic lights. Has anyone ever upgraded from standard lights to HID/xenon with LEDs? I am not a big fan of how crappy and outdated basic lights are and I am not really used to them. Any advice/feedback is much appreciated! For reference, these are the headlights I am talking about that my current car has... http://images.autotrader.com/scaler/...06c26a4602.jpg

I have a set of used LED/xenon projector housings with about 10,000 miles on them for sale.

Go to xenondepot.com and get a HID kit. I think this is the one for your A4.

you need the projectors, and programming..

changing over the bulbs, by themselves won't work... you'll melt plastic, and have an unfocused (illegal) flood light on the front of your car.
