Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Hey Guys
2012 A6. Dumb question, is there a bulb just for the
DRLs or is it connected to the main bulb? Im
looking to change from factory 4300k to 6000k and
idk if i need to mess with the DRLs too keep a
uniform light at night.

Not a dumb question. I think on your vehicle the DRL's are along the bottom of the headlight assembly in a strip and are LED. Replacing them means replacing the whole headlight assembly. Do you have the Xenon or Halogen low beams? The Premium plus trim probably has xenon. The high beams will he Halogens. You can change the temperate rating on those. I wouldn't go more than 5000K, 6000K might look cool but reduces the light output.
