C7.5-Style Full LED Headlights — Audi A6 / S6 / RS6 (4G)
OEM-Style Bi-LED Upgrade for Halogen & Xenon Models — Matched to Your Pre-Facelift or Facelift Bumper — Sedan & Avant — 2011–2018
Audi A6 (4G) • S6 • RS6 • Sedan & Avant • C7 Pre-Facelift • C7.5 Facelift • 2011–2018
Give your C7 the lighting it should have left the factory with — the sharp C7.5 facelift signature, with the LED DRL strip, integrated cornering lights, and bi-LED low/high beam projectors, in a complete self-contained unit with every module pre-installed and pre-configured. No adapter looms, no VCDS coding, no BCM swaps, no dealer visits. Plug into your factory halogen or xenon harness and drive.
And now you choose the front end. These are offered in two housing shapes — one for the pre-facelift bumper, one for the facelift bumper — so a pre-facelift owner can either keep their existing bumper for the simplest install, or go the whole way to a full facelift front end. Your headlights are built to match the bumper you choose.
Integrated auto-leveling motor included. Compatible with the factory auto high beam assist function where fitted.
Step 1 — Choose Your Front Bumper
The pre-facelift (C7) and facelift (C7.5) front ends are different shapes. We build the headlight to match — select the bumper your car has, or the one you plan to fit.
Doing a full facelift conversion?If you have a pre-facelift car and select the facelift bumper option, you'll also need to fit the C7.5 facelift bumper and its associated front-end trim (sourced separately) — our headlights are shaped to match that facelift front end. If you'd rather keep things simple, choose the pre-facelift bumper option and it's a direct headlight swap with no bodywork at all.
Step 2 — Identify Your Factory Headlights
We manufacture a dedicated version for each factory wiring type. This is about the wiring your car was originally built with — not the bumper you chose above. A pre-facelift car keeps its pre-facelift harness even with a facelift bumper fitted.
Factory Halogen
Basic halogen reflectors — the biggest visual leap to the full C7.5 LED look. Plug-and-play, no coding.
Xenon — Pre-Facelift (C7)
Built 2011–2014. Standard (non-AFS) xenon on a pre-facelift car. Plug-and-play, no coding.
Xenon — Facelift (C7.5)
Built 2014–2018. Standard (non-AFS) xenon on a facelift car. Plug-and-play, no coding.
Why pre-facelift and facelift xenon are listed separatelyAudi changed the xenon wiring between the pre-facelift (C7, 2011–2014) and facelift (C7.5, 2014–2018) cars, so the two use different harnesses. Pick the one that matches when your car was built — this is independent of the bumper you selected above. If you've fitted a facelift bumper to a pre-facelift car, you still have the pre-facelift harness.
Standard xenon vs AFSThese fit standard (non-AFS) xenon only. AFS adaptive headlights physically swivel left and right as you steer at night — if yours do that, this isn't the right set. If your beams stay pointed straight ahead, you have standard xenons and these are a perfect fit. Cars originally fitted with full LED or Matrix LED headlights aren't compatible either.

Engineered to Stay on the Car
Pre-Configured CAN-Bus Electronics
If you've researched LED retrofits on the C7, you know the usual process: adapter looms, VCDS coding across several modules, security access codes, BCM compatibility checks, sometimes a dealer visit for component protection. We engineered these to bypass all of it. The internal electronics are pre-configured to communicate directly with the factory BCM over the CAN-bus on halogen and xenon harnesses — no diagnostic tools, no software changes, no dealer involvement.
Ships Complete — Nothing to Transfer
Every assembly includes all LED drivers, control modules, and DRL electronics pre-installed and factory-configured. There's nothing to source separately and nothing to remove from your old headlights. Your factory units stay fully intact — keep them as a backup or sell them on.
Bi-LED Projectors with Auto-Leveling
Low and high beam are handled by a single bi-LED projector source per side — instant-on, full output from the moment you turn the key, with a sharp cutoff line and wide coverage. No xenon bulbs, no ballasts, no warm-up delay. The integrated auto-leveling motor adjusts beam height based on vehicle load, operating just like your factory headlights.
Auto High Beam Assist Compatible
If your A6 is equipped with the factory camera-based auto high beam assist, it continues to operate after installation. The high beam output and control signal are wired to match the factory interface — the system switches between low and high beam exactly as before, with no reconfiguration required on the car side.
Cornering Lights Included
A dedicated inner LED activates automatically when you signal a turn — casting a wide, static beam into the direction you're turning. Integrated into the housing and wired into the indicator circuit. No additional wiring, no coding.
Bench-Tested & 2-Year Warranty
High-grade ABS housings with PMMA lenses, fully sealed against moisture and condensation. Every pair is powered up and tested across all functions before it ships, and backed by two years of coverage from delivery.
Installation
A straightforward headlight swap that requires front bumper removal — standard practice on the 4G A6 platform. No wiring modifications, no coding, no diagnostic tools. Allow 2–3 hours.
- Remove the front bumper: undo the fasteners along the top edge (under the hood), the Torx screws inside the wheel arches, and the undertray clips. Disconnect any fog light or sensor connectors before carefully pulling the bumper forward.
- Unbolt the factory headlights and disconnect the main harness plug.
- Plug the new Full LED headlight directly into your factory harness. No adapters, no re-pinning.
- Test before reassembly — verify low beam, high beam, DRL strip, turn signals, cornering lights, and auto-leveling.
- Reinstall the bumper (or fit your facelift bumper if converting), align beam height using the integrated adjusters, and you're done.
Tip: Wrap painter's tape along the fender edges before bumper removal to protect the paintwork. Photograph each connector before unplugging — it speeds up reassembly.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Select the facelift bumper option and your headlights will be shaped to fit the C7.5 front end. You'll also need to source and fit the facelift bumper and its front-end trim separately, but the headlights are built to match it. If you'd rather keep your current bumper, choose the pre-facelift option instead — it's a straight headlight swap with no bodywork.
That's the pre-facelift bumper option. You keep your existing front end exactly as it is and simply swap the headlights — the fastest, simplest route to the C7.5 LED look.
No — and this is the most important distinction. What you've read applies to retrofitting genuine OEM Audi LED headlights, which were designed for a completely different wiring topology and require extensive VCDS reconfiguration. Our assemblies are purpose-built to work with your existing halogen or xenon harness as-is. The internal electronics handle the CAN-bus handshake with the factory BCM on their own. No coding, no adapters, no third-party looms.
Yes. The headlight mounting points and harness are identical across both body styles.
Yes. The S6 and RS6 (4G) share the same headlight architecture as the A6. If your S6/RS6 currently has halogen or standard xenon headlights, these are a direct fit — just match the bumper and harness options to your car.
It matters: Audi used different xenon wiring on the pre-facelift (C7, 2011–2014) and facelift (C7.5, 2014–2018) cars, so we build a version for each. Go by when your car was built, and select the matching xenon option at checkout. Importantly, this is about your car's original wiring, not the bumper — if you've fitted a facelift bumper to a pre-facelift car, you still have the pre-facelift harness. If you're unsure, send us your VIN and we'll confirm.
No. These are designed as an upgrade from standard halogen or non-AFS xenon setups to the C7.5 Full LED look. They aren't intended for cars that already have factory LED units or AFS steering-tracked headlights.
Yes. If your A6 is fitted with the factory camera-based auto high beam assist, it continues to function normally. The high beam control interface is wired to match the factory signal — no reconfiguration needed on the car side.
The visual difference is significant — you go from an aging bi-xenon look to the sharp, modern C7.5 LED DRL strip and full bi-LED output. Practically, you also get ahead of inevitable xenon ballast and D-series bulb failures, which are expensive to repair. LED modules are instant-on, run cooler, and draw less power.
Nothing. Every LED driver, control module, and DRL unit is pre-installed. Your factory headlights stay fully intact.
Yes, if you're comfortable with bumper removal on a 4G-platform Audi. You'll need Torx bits, a trim removal tool, and about 2–3 hours. Professional installation is recommended if you've never removed an A6 bumper before — it's not difficult, but knowing where the hidden fasteners are saves time.
