Ansen, or anyone else that might know...
These are the stealth bulbs that Mike @PureMS said would work with my setup, but when I got em they are totally different. The Amber ones that are in there currently are rounded at the bottom and these new ones are flat...like a rectangle, and I tried but I cant get them to fit in the original connector cause um I'm basically trying to stick a rectangle into a round hole [:D]. Any thoughts? Do I just have the wrong ones, or do I need to do something to the connector to make em fit?
Here's a pic of the new ones (sorry I didnt take a pic of the old ones but just picture your basic rounded bottom that u push in and twist to lock..though I'm sure you already knew that)

are you running e-codes? stock 2-piece? 1-piece? either way, i'm not really familiar with the bulbs, just send mike an e-mail, explain your situation and he'll help you out, no question.

You just got the wrong ones. Sounds like you received the dual-filament flat-base 3357/3457 for stock housings and you may have E-Codes which take a single-filament round-base PY21W/7507. Unless you have the older two-piece housings...

Ok guys thanks! I don't have ecodes.. I have projectors from a 01 A4, but I believe we used the same connectors from my 99 A4.. So I'll call Mike and see if there is a product out there for me [confused]

Ah, yes, that's the problem. The pre-99.5 took a different bulb.

The Osram Sylvania Bulb Replacement Guide (http://www.sylvania.com/ConsumerProducts/AutomotiveLighting/LampReplacementGuide) says it's a 2357A or 2827. Not sure about those...
