Default If you wanna do a HID/e-code conversion...

go to epimporters.com and talk to them. For S4 e-codes and HIDs, it cost like $1,000

Well the kit I'm talking about has everything:euro-spec housings, ballast, and low-beam bulbs. You would just use your high-beam bulb that you have now. And as for foglights, you could go to supremepower.com and get some from there. They aren't xenon foglights but they match the xenon really good.
