Default PIECES OF S6 2001 FOR A6 1998, IS VALID???

<center><img src="http://www.forocoches.com/galeria/data/500/2369s6.jpg"></center><p>Hello friends,

I have a doubt and he wanted to know if the Front Bumper and the Front Capot of a S6 of 2001 could settle without problems in my A6 of 1998.

And the xenon? is it necessary to make some special installation to install about 2001 in a 1998?

I doubt it. S6 hood (due to V8) is 2 inches longer than standard A6 hood.

Default None of these parts are transferable. Technically the Xenon....

lights could be transferred but they need the level sensors from the front and rear suspension to ensure the alignment is correct at all times or they will be illegal to use. To transfer all of this is not practical.

The bonnet (hood) and front bumber are different and will not fit.

Default Actually, the Xenon housings are a different shape...

and will only fit post-facelift cars (either 4.2 models or other models 2002+). The shape of the fenders and hood are different pre- and post-facelift. I originally thought of doing the facelift mod for my 2001 when I got into an accident, but the driver's side headlight and fender were intact. It seemed like a huge waste to do that mod.

I in my A6 1998 have xenon, but what I don't know if to install the xenon of the S6 2001 it is "Plug &amp; Play?"

In my Golf IV have installed xenon 2003 + regulators of automatic level<ul><li><a href="http://clubvwgolf.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=53">http://clubvwgolf.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=53</a</li></ul>

Default Might be plug and play, but will not physically fit pre-facelift model

due to different shape
