 Audi's Answer to BMW Angel Eyes.... Devil Eyes | « » 12:13 PM 6/25/2008 | |
|
 We'll reserve judgement of whether this is a tasteful OEM mod or... not until after we see the application on a car, but you have to give the clever award of the day to Raid HP in the naming of their latest product. Retrofits of Audi's distinctive new headlight design were inevitable in the aftermarket, but just what to call them remained ambiguous up until now. The German purveyor of tuning bits has come up with a handle, something that both describes the look and takes a jab at Audi's leading competitor BMW. The name "Devil Eyes" has been applied. We're looking forward to seeing how they actually look on older Audi models such as the B5 A4 and C5 A6. Full Story

I wish they'd make one for the 8P A3.

Just great - wish they would have left the Passat out of the mix.

I'm surprised they did the early 8L A3 and not the current 8P. Also, I wonder why the A6 is only part of the C5 run. I didn't realize the headlights changed. In addition, I wonder if these are compatible with HID units.

Oh no, I can see it now - Chavs in their Max Power 'enhanced' B5 A4s, C5 A6s and S3-badged 1.6 8L A3s sitting in the corner of supermarket car parks with their cheap tints and boomboxes. This sort of thing should be left to the Barry boys who love to retrofit Angel Eyes to their E36 and E39 BMWs - they have no place on an Audi IMO.

No Sir- they are custom 4-chip LEDs- custom mounted on a standard A3 Fog grills. The LEDs are 5x brighter than normal 5mmLEDs- however they produce little to no heat, they are not 1watt LEDs (which requires heat sinking). These are waterproof with wired-in resistors- direct connect to 12v source.
