2016 Audi A6 - fog lights
Hi all,
I am new to this thread and i am a new Audi owner. I have driven Japanese cars all my life and after recently getting married the wife wanted something more " sophisticated " so here we are.
so i have a 2016 A6 Premium plus, in white with 19 inch Y spoke wheels.
I live in New York and close to the water. For the winter month i like to add some fog lights. for example:
2016 Audi S6 and A6 first-drive ? Autobahn blitz - SlashGear
I know they are on the S6, can i put them on my A6.
Where do i get them? Is installation easy?
Appreciate the help and thank you in advance.

Those are not fog lights in the link you provided - those are sensors for adaptive cruise control. Front fog lights are not standard or optional on the A6/S6.
Check out this link to an aftermarket install:

My 2016 does not have fog lights but it does have what Audi refers to as poor weather lights. When the button is pressed, you get additional lighting to the sides which might be helpful at low speeds. Real fog lights are really not that useful and are good only for speeds below 25 mph. They are on cars today purely for fashion. Rear fog lights, on the other hand, can be useful on the highway at night in heavy rain or fog. Unfortunately, too many idiots have these on at night in good weather or even during the day.

The rear fog lights do help a lot in snow as well as fog.

Just to add mu $0.02 worth to this. On the C7 Audi only offered the front fog lights with the Halogen headlights, Xenon or LED headlights equipped cars were not available with separate fog lights in the bumper. Depending on the market (and the UK does have this) Xenon equipped cars have a halogen bulb in the headlight assembly that provides the fog light (poor weather) function and when available the cornering light, some markets just make do the the DRL for this. LED equipped cars have a specific program for the light for poor weather

John, what program for LED headlights are you referring to? In the U.S., we have side facing, all-weather/turning lights that only come on automatically on the appropriate side when doing a turn at slow speed or they can be turned on under certain conditions by manually pressing a dash button. (They don't really offer much for "fog" conditions). Other than the fixed LED lamps offering a wide range of light, I don't notice any lighting change in poor weather conditions. Is this possibly an EU feature?
