    Audi full retrofit

    Ok so I've been doing a lot of searching and am thinking of doing a full on retrofit with a set of Audi headlights. My plan is to take a set of either audi a4 b5 2ds headlights


    or audi a4 b7 headlights (bi-xenon) w/ r8 leds


    and completely convert them into the stock housing or some old ebay projector housings that I have for the one piece look.

    Im thinking the one without the leds would be easier to fit into the stock housing/ebay projector housing
    My question is am I taking on more than I can handle or will it be worth all the trouble in the end? I wanted to get your opinions before I decide to spend the money.

    Thanks

    what does a set of audi headlights cost? And how delicate/fragile are those LEDs?

      Ive found them to run about $200-250 fully stock replacement made by depo. Im guessing the leds are going to be somewhat fragile.

        That's going to be an expensive hid swap. But if u manage, props!

          well its not that much really because if it doesnt go the way i plan ive still got hid projectors and shrouds. I've already got hids so thats not another expense. Im still contemplating doing it
