      It is and is not.
      Can it be fit on a car and use solely as brights on speed above 45mph, yes
      Can it be used as headlight since the beam is adjustable and can you keep the brights on since it can adjust the beam to blind out parts of the lights
      Absolutely Not.
      So all Audi with laser headlights are neutered at the port and you get the same physical product but 1/4 of the value and features.
