headlight mod/change.

[JonBoi25]

Hi all ,

Looking to make my headlights darker to hopefully suit the car more.

I've got the s3 8l face lift.

I've seen a number of people open up the original lamps and spray them up black inside which looks sweet . Something I may do but seems a bit of a faff!

So I May look into after market ones but they all seem to be for the a3 8ls.
Are the a3 and s3 interchangeable ?

Cheers. Jon

Most of the aftermarket lights i found when i was looking a while back were for pre facelifts. pretty sure a3 and s3 lights are interchangeable

Don't forget S3 lights are xenon and aftermarket ones are halogen... Hid kits could be used but cut off pattern is wrong as xenon requires a different pattern to be UK legal
