    No they will not fit. They are designed for a completely different model. You can of course get relatively similar, if a little tacky, aftermarket versions on Fleabay and the like.

    If it was me I'd look for some OEM units on eBay and if you really wanted to do a good job the bumper and washers to go with it. Just my opinion, but the LED's on anything bar what they are intended for look cheap and nasty.

    I'll go further and say they even look cheap & nasty on current models!

    Agreed and the raft of copies from Skoda,saab,merc etc all look as equally crap.

    LEDs look terrible on the A4 but not too bad on the A5. Difference headlights on both models.

    The ones on the older model A6 look pure crap alltogether. I suppose its like the Lexus lights copy cats from a few years ago...:rolleyes::rolleyes:
