Hi,
My first post here, bit of a lurker, but received a lot of useful tidbits of info through the various posts here. I am now after something a bit more specific, hoping someone can help. I am the proud owner of an 2016 Audi Avant (B9). After a decade in the UK, the family and I have decided it's time to move back to mainland Europe, France to be specific, where my wife is from. For several reasons, we'd like to take our car with us and register it over there. This will require the taillights to be switched (fog light is on the "wrong" side according to the French), and the headlight beam pattern need to be adjusted. I am comfortable with changing the taillights and crossing the wires over, however, I am unsure what the best way would be to change the headlight beam pattern, and Audi UK and the dealership have been rather unhelpful. They are bog standard Xenon (I believe, not LED matrix at least) lights with a flat beam pattern. Will this just require lowering one side and raising the other side? That sounds too good to be true. Does this need to be coded? Do I need to get Euro versions of the headlights, and if yes, would this be essentially plug and play, apart from the normal calibration procedures?
Any info would be greatly appreciated!
