The sharp cutoff is the same on my new Euro headlights on the 200qw. I was out at night in it this weekend for the first time and kept on feeling like I was blinding oncoming traffic, but only until I got a good look at the cutoff. It angles up sharply on the inside to illuminate signs and what-not a looooong way down the road and then is just cut off right above the hood (just below the windshield/rear windows on oncoming/same direction vehicles. Amazing difference from the OE candle sticks. - peter henriksen, peterhe@microsoft.com, issaquah, wa 91 200qw 94 acura legend gs 80 mazda 626 >---------- >From: ets@wrkgrp.com[SMTP:ets@wrkgrp.com] >Sent: Monday, July 01, 1996 9:48 AM >To: quattro@coimbra.ans.net >Subject: Re: xenon projector beam headlights > >>From quattro-owner@coimbra.ans.net Sat Jun 29 12:15:18 1996 >>From: Eliot Lim <eliot@u.washington.edu> >>Date: Sat, 29 Jun 1996 00:50:24 -0700 (PDT) >>Subject: Re: S4/S6 vs. 200TQ 20V >> >>one final comment re: s4/s6 vs. 200TQ20V. steve powers told me that >>the 95.5 >>S6 comes with xenon projector beam headlights. having seen these in action >>on the a8, i would say that these constitute a major difference between the >>S6 and the 200TQ. one could get aftermarket H4's for the 200TQ of course >>and a 200TQ full of aftermarket improvements will still come up a lot less >>than the still very expensive used S4/S6. > >This is certainly true, the UBERWGN's headlights are amazing. >Especially the "focus", they provide very bright illumination up to a >line parallel with the hood, and then nothing at all above that. > >OTOH, that's just the headlights, just one feature of the vehicle. > > >== "When you believe in things you don't understand, then you suffer" >== >=============== Steveland Morris (a.k.a.
