    It literally only takes 5 minutes to pull the headlight out - 2 screws on top, 1 screw for the trim under the headlight and 2 more screws under the headlight - dead easy.

      Yep, quickest way to change the bulbs. I don't even understand why I attempted it with the headlamps in situ now (like the first 2 times I changed the bulbs!!).Dead easy. I found pulling the bottom end of the unit out (push top in first) on mine to be the easiest way..not sure if that is due to the RS2 bumper I have or whether that's how everyone else does it.

          It will fit back fine. Adjustment is done in the headlight itself.

              Get yourself a HID kit from www.vagparts.com MartynF or Audi Parts Guru can help you out. So white, their almost blue if you know what I mean. I have seen them installed and they are well impressive. Told they were brighter than those fitted to the new Range Rovers.
