Would you be able to locate the thread or at least provide some key words so that I can expedite the search? Thanks in advance.

Did you saw all this thread back ? There is lot of info about parts needed and even pictures of it. Thanks to Elberoth I just did here some info about coding and adaptation

You don t have to change electrical central? Inside the car?

vikislap

No .. Just coding and adaptation

Try, if change the bi-xenon on the bi-xenon

If you change the halogen on the bi-xenon you need Central Electronic Module (Bordnetzes)
I know of two cases for Q5 that they had to change Central Electronic Module ( halogen to bi-xenon) and one for the A4

But he said he has fl q5 with halogen and need instal bixenon ...I had pre fl halogen and I did put bixenon and was working good..... Only think was wires there is diferent plugs and also need to be extended ..one of the wire each side go's to the car and have to be connected to module for high beam and that's it.( instalation manual for them say where axactly ) and coding for it is available with them too

I'm in the process of completing the swap and have some questions about the install. Hopefully this will help anyone else doing the swap in the future.

First, on the driver's side, the bracket mounted perfectly using the existing holes and bolts which hold the power steering reservoir in place:



On the other side, however, I need to drill holes in the fender support. This is where I'm a bit confused. The hole on the driver's side had threads for the bolt to screw into and if I drill on the pass side, I think I'd need nuts on the other side to hold them securely. Also - there's an airbox support there (pass side) which the bracket would get in the way of. How should I get around this?
The OP calls for ordering 4x N10751101 - I presume these are to mount the two brackets to the fender supports? Why not reuse the PS bracket bolts on the driver's side? Or are these bolts for something else in the install?

(where I'd need to drill the holes)



(the airbox support which would get in the way)





Next, I'm using kufatec harness extensions. The only way I've found to route the driver's side extension is in such a way that the factory harness wires are right against the support bracket, which is a bit concerning as I'm worried they'll get damaged over time. Here's a top-down shot:





Final minor question - how are the rubber hoses supposed to be routed? I just kind of let them hang down but feel like they should be routed/secured somehow so they're not just free to move around in the engine bay.


Hoping to stop by a dealership to check out the engine bay of a new 2.0T to hopefully get some answers! In the meantime if anyone can chime in, that would be much appreciated.

Stopped by my local dealer today to check out the engine bay of a newer Q. Looks like the driver side bracket bolts in to the same holes as the PS pump, and the pass side has a couple holes in the exact same spot, just in front of the airbox support. Will be getting a set of drill bits and updating with correct size. Not sure if I can get a nut on the other side of the support to really secure the bracket in place...

Hey man did you bye them to swap the lights? Did it work? And if it did what other things did you have to order?

Read all this add you can get all information...
