I noticed what looks like two connected snowflakes in mine...

Is this the dreaded Xeon disease ? It looks like it's only in one.

That's it! They're especially noticeable on a clean TT at night w/xenons "on."

i had no trouble swapping mine (more)

it's a known problem. have your dealer compare your lights to a new tt (without veins) and ask "does this look normal to you?" the answer is obvious. you could always have your dealer contact mine (reeves import motor cars, tampa 813-933-2811) ask for nader in audi service. best of luck!
