    Need assistance on rear fog lamp

    Somewhere I found the quote below on R8Talk.com, but I cannot find it again. Can someone assist? I need to find instructions on installing a EU rear fog lamp on an USA car. Can anyone identify who I quoted?

    “There are some internet vendors that have them. I talked to my R8 tech who had installed one. He said the physical install was fairly straight forward with a replacement of the light switch, some wire running and the actual mounting of the light in the rear punch out. It required some reprogramming of the computer that must be done at a dealer. I think he said it required 2 to 3 hours of work on his part and you can get the parts for about $225. “

    You can also call around to different dealers for quotes.I have found that pricing on labor is not set in stone.Luckily most of my work can be done in my own shop.(with a little help from my freinds!).See gallery to notice some MAJOR changes I have made to my Audi.
