    its possible but its expensive. Also to do the full factory job, you need to fit the headlight washer system and headlight self levelling. These are a legal requirement for xenon lights.
    I'm assuming its the led light feature you are interested in.
    Have a search of a5oc.com for people who have done the conversion on Audi a5 - same process. Guy called johnieb did it. Its not really worthwhile in my opinion.

    From what I can see that's only the control unit, front & rear axle sensors and wiring loom - you'll still need the (original) bi-xenon or adaptive headlights, although xenon adapters (whatever they are) are included.

    The DRl's come as a pack with Xenon lights which need washers etc by law. Those aftermarket kits are tacktastic anyway..
