I'm not for sure either. But yeah I have it bookmarked just in case I want to go back to it. I may just use an SD card and get the lighting adapter to just charge my phone.

Thanks for the help, really appreciate it!!

Does anyone know where I can find the OE HID bulb size? I've looked on owners manual and it says to have an authorized Audi tech to switch them out?

D3S size (pls double check with other people as well though)
I haven't looked into the headlight assembly of the C7 A6 so I can't comment with 100% confidence but I think it's an overkill to have an Audi technician to switch them out.
Most likely, it's just a matter of removing the back cover of the headlight assy, removing wiring harness from the bulb, removing a tab that holds the bulb in place tight and reverse...

Ohh ok. I am also guessing you have to remove the headlight assembly to get to the bulbs?
