Eurolights While
nothing like as bad as the old 5000-series cars, the
headlights on the S4 are nothing to write home about.
During 1999, I had a chance to retrofit Euro-style Hella
S4 lights, courtesy of a group purchase arranged by Frank
Amoroso (the Don of the Colorado S-car Mafia).
Subjectively, the differences are as follows:
- The Euros are much brighter than the DOT-spec
units, even when using a lower-power
bulb.
- The beam pattern is far, far sharper.
You can aim these things precisely, light up the
road, yet run no risk of blinding anyone above
bumper-level.
- I, personally, am much more comfortable and
confident driving at speed at night. What was
once obscure is now clear and detailed, hundreds
of feet off into the distance.
- Visually, the new lenses are slightly more modern
looking than the DOT ones, but naturally retain a
perfect "factory" look.
