Default Xenon went out today.

One of my xenon bulbs went out today(1999 A6). I called the audi parts dept. they told me it's $185. Can anyone recommend a place where I can find them for less money.

Default I got a set on ebay for about $90 shipped

You'll probably need a set because they won't match in color, my old ones were blue, my new ones are white.

Actually, I have an old blue one if interested....but it's old.

Is the one you have an original Xenon from your car?

If it's the original from your car would you want to sell it?

Default I have one original bulb from a 98 A8 xenon set

Will sell it for $40 shipped....it's blue in color...i.e. not the white that you see these days.

I ended up replacing both bulbs because the first one I got did not match my original blue color (which I like)....so now I have two white bulbs and kept the blue one that's still good....but can't predict how much life is left in it.

If you want it, email me paul@audipages.com
