Default Amber blinker LED headlights

Almost every single picture of the A6 I've seen in a review has been with the headlights without the blinker amber. e.g:




Yet all the shipped cars appear to have headlights that look like this:



Has anyone in NA had any luck getting the "Amberless" headlight from their dealer? If so does anyone have the part #?

If its the law in the US it makes sense, though check out the audi.ca website and compare it AoA. None of the pictures on the CA site have the amber. I live in Canada so I'm going to check to see if its also the case here.
I guess now the question becomes does anyone in Canada have the amberless lights.

The pic on the website even says European model shown.

I must be blind because I'm not seeing where it says European model shown.
However I found this: http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/sta...08_e.htm#BK110 so yes apparently it is a legal matter. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Sucks though... IMO the amberless version looks so much better.

Didn't realise you were on .ca. On Audi USA the pics do specify euro spec, and I totally agree with you the non amber lights look way better.
