Who made those inserts?

Those look great!
I agree w/ the OP that the iJDMTOY lights look better, although I would go for the deAutokey ones because of the fitting problem (rubber seal).
Is there a link for DIY install guide?

I used to be a pretty enthusiastic member here when i had my b7 a4 (hence my username), but now I'm just starting to get back into this!
Help me out guys!

and now, those new LED taillights are something else....

I have found another front turn signal bulbs that will actually fit perfectly with the rubber seal on it.

Here I have the iJDMTOY vs. deAutoKey. Links are in the description in video.

I don't think there's a guide on installing the turn signals. It's basically just opening the hood and removing the plastic cover in the front area to access the bulbs and then remove the bulbs and replace.

Is that right?? I will pop the hood later and take a look.
I remember in my B7 A4, I had to remove the plastic airway on the driver's side to access the bulb housing.

Well I mean you have to go behind the headlight to remove the rubber piece to access the bulbs.

Remove the plastic cover in picture outlined in red. Then you can get access to the headlight from behind

Cool thx - just looked it up and it's considerably more than the Injen intake...what made you go with USP? Have you read/heard things about it that put it above the Injen one? I'm thinking I'll be getting a new intake shortly, so curious how you made your decision.

Np. Yeah I have to agree it's over priced but when I was getting APR Stage I & II done at the shop along with front new tires and 75K maintenance I told them to go ahead and order intake also and they told me USP is the only ones that make intakes for our cars.

Some on here said that the injen will fit but you have to do little mod.

You don't have to do any mod
Sometimes the "arm" that secures the intake to the bolt at the firewall doesn't reach so you just bend it by hand and it fits perfectly
Of course mine is an A7 but I have read some threads that the A6 can use the A7 injen
Maybe some A6 owners thought it didn't fit because the arm didn't reach the firewall, but several people have had the same problem, it looks hard to bend but it is not.
