OK, if I buy the A4 euros from SPP, can I upgrade to Xenon later? (m)
I've got 99.5 projectors, non-xenon obviously. Looking to get in on the A4 euro GB, but want to upgrade to Xenon later. Can I? Or do I need to buy the S4 euros (not worth it, since they're over $200 more). Thanks!

Yes you can.
If you get halogen A4 Euro's, all you would need would be an aftermarket H7 HID upgrade kit. Generally about $500. This would include ballasts and bulbs.
S4 euros are for those that already have standard Xenons from the factory.

yes...
To upgrade to Xenon, just like you would w/ your US spec halogen projector headlights, you would need an aftermarket HID kit, like the Phillips kit. You only need the Euro S4 Xenon housings if you have the Factory HID system. (like me 
sux having to pay an extra $160 for VERY similar housings...)

Yup!
A bunch of the philly guys were fiddling with headlights last night...we had
*Euro's with factory xenons
*US Spec with factory xenons
*Euro's with halogens
*US Spec with halogens
I paid the most attention to the xenon lights with US and Euro spec xenon housings. The difference was dramatic!! The US spec housings seemed dim in comparison...now I want Euro housings! :-(
Sorry, while we all recognized it was a good opportunity to take pictures, those of us with cameras (me) neglected to bring said cameras.
