Kufatec LED upgrade for A3 - Anyone done this who can help me?

**rosso rocket** · 31-05-2012,06:28 PM

I have just ordered the kit from Germany (Kufatec) with lighting units, looms etc.

I know the car will need coding but does anyone have the codes required to do this or can help with the re-coding?
Also, if yoiu have done this, would you be willing to point out the order in fitting the kit i.e. code first, lights after or is it the other way round?

Cheers all

Are you doing the Xenon upgrade or the tail light?

Remember if you are and to be legal - you need self levellers in the suspension and washer jets in the bumper for the Xenon.

NHN is the man for A3 upgrades.
I'm sure Nige will be along soon to help.

run the looms fit the lights code the car

done a few xenon with level sensors you need the correct central electrics control unit firstly to add the retro fit to the vehicle electrics

you will as mentioned require headlight washers so look on ebay for a full bumper kit as its easier just swap the lot

sure I did a how to thread for 8p on here ages ago

kufatec looms are based on vw golf from my past experience so be prepared to alter the loom

Care to share the info?

I think the OP may be changing the rears to LED, not front xenons....

I added more info on the audi us forum at the time.I also converted a TT I had loads of retro fits to add to the forum but never got round to uploading

If I recall they ended up on ebay with sellers either giving links to the forum or sending printouts lol

I had one sent to me cheeky buggers

I'll have a look there now - are the levellers hard to install or just stick with the crappy halogen?

I've added DAB and AMI to my A6 so can cope with easy stuff

What other retrofits had you done but never got uploaded?

A bumper is easy to get with washers and I seen somewhere a guide to modify the windscreen washer pump/bottle and add the pipework

I remember seeing you post that and getting one sent to yourself is pretty bad!
