These fog light come with H7 bulb and here's how they look like:

They were installed on late A8 D2s and A4 B5s.

I'm not sure, but maybe you'll have to buy new grills (non-split ones) and new lower bumper skirt if you want to retrofit them to older A8 D2. This need to be investigated with ETKA.

There's also Hella's kit on the market that should fit tip top. Hella is usually higher quality than Valeo, which Audi decided to use as OEM fog lamps supplier for D2 for some strange reason. Hella's part numbers: 1N0 010 845-011 / 1N0 010 845-021



Check out Hella catalog:

That is the lamp I have presently. We didn't get a projector, all fogs were reflector housing. I've decided to build a retrofit using a Ford Fusion lamp in the factory housing. I'm ordering them tonight. Here's some pics of the fog, its cutoff, etc.





Not my photos, just for reference.

I'm not a big cut off expert to be honest.
Does it mean Ford Fusion fog lights have the best cut off in industry?

Not best in the industry per se, but best for the money. They're extremely affordable (half what a comparable Hella product costs) and extremely available here.

Thanks Camaro. It'd be great to see how you'll fit them in stock places. I think the best approach will be to adopt existing OEM housing and put those Fox god light inside them. This will ensure you can use existing fastening to keep foglight in the bumper.

That's exactly the plan. I'm going to try it out in the next week or thereabouts.
