    B8 to b8.5 conversion

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I have a 2010 a4 that I've converted to a b8.5. I'm looking to get some help with vagcom for the lights. I'm not using any adapter just plug and play b8 headlight socket to b8.5 lights. My lights are working fine and except when I turn my main lights on the drl lights shut off. If I turn my headlights off then my drl Led lights are on and working fine. Is there any way to enable the drl lights to be on when my main headlights are on also? I've looked on vagcom but I'm not to great with it so didn't want to screw something up. Any help would be great!

    Wow, nice work. There are a few others on here that have done the swap. I haven't seen any knowledge of headlight coding shared yet, but here's another link that could help: http://www.audizine.com/forum/showth...for-b8-gt-b8-5
    See if you can get in touch with @Enraa

    Where did you get all your parts?

    Well played. Do you have any resources you could share? I'm hoping to tackle this soon. Shoot me a PM if you get a chance.

    Hi guys. I have done the 8 to 8.5 on my 2011 Allroad, and have the exact same problems as other people who have done the conversion : When the main beam turns on, the DRL turns off.
    Anyone wants to share the coding?

    Has anyone done this in a B8 (Xenon with AFS) to B8.5 (Xenon with AFS)? I would like to tackle this, but don't want to lose my AFS functionality.

    Hey Buddy, did you try that code for your DRLs and did it work? I've done similar conversion and have same exact problem. Thanks for your reply!
