2005 A8 (North American market) has those lights. New ones are very expensive. Old ones are very old. Besides that harnesses and control module are different. It looks like almost impossible task. But if you somehow manage to do it VCDS program DRL to Canada and your fog lights will become DRL.

Ok.so i did not look like that was an option for more light. Other option is to add a led bar. Can i use the blue wire in the headlight Connector as an trigger for the relay. Like on my late skoda octavia or it different when you have bixenon. Or do i need a can box to tap into the canbus.

The second question is , where can i acess the comfort can bus too connect CANM8 CANNECT HIGHBEAM or equal can adapter?

made the wiring throught to the front of the engine right sideand connected it to the relay. Relay Power was takene from the starter motor.

If you headlight bulbs are original, I would change them to Nightbreakers. That should give you oddles of light. I have found that the added 21 watts of halogen is pointless. DRL are also pointless in the USA. They have not improved traffic safety.
