Hi everyone
Not cruiser related but in desperate need of some wise words, i need to replace a Xenon head light bulb on wife's Audi Q5. Euro car part has got some for £125 for a single bulb if i put in the part no google to search the only one that comes up is located in states at an unbelievable $900. My question is that can i replace it with any other Xenon D3S bulb, if i replace it with any Ebay bulb of similar power, what would be the consequences,
I don't really want to create another problem trying cure one.
Thank you in advance.

One d3s is much as another. I would steer towards a decent brand just for longevity sake though.
 
I think they recommend changing in pairs as the colour spectrum changes with age..... certainly on the wifes E class merc it was noticeable so I changed both ...what a c@@k of a job too
 
Thank you Rich, the one i took out was a philips one so i'll probably get the same, possibly both.
Thank you Grimbo, yes it's a pain, having to dismantle front trim plus taking out the air box etc.
Thank you once again:thumbup:
