Hi - does anyone know if the headlights can be adjusted to point to the left intead of to the right which mine do and has just failed MOT due to this. It ws imported from Germany, is right hand drive and everything else appears standard. Do I have to buy two new headlight units and if so any idea how much please.

thanks
John

Sorry fella, but methinks you'll have to dig deep for RHD lamps. Don't think you can alter the Euro kit.

yep require new headlights, circa £100 each

You should be able to get the stickers from Halfords or similar plases that will flatten the beam. It should pass the MOT with these, ask the tester to see and he may help you stick them in the right place. Even though they are fro RHD to convert to LHD you can turn them round to do the job.

thought so - ironic thing is that I off to France in it in 2 week and need to replace the lights for mot then put on deflectors to drive on rights etc..

Do they come cheaper if I upgraded to loc gold etc?

hay-ho

I think he has a fetish for lights

Try a breakers as they will be cheaper than a £100

contact [url="http://www.douglasvalley.co.uk/"]http://www.douglasvalley.co.uk/[/url] think they may have spare set

Mine failed last week as well, but due to the headlight aim, rather than direction.

£12.50 + VAT just to adjust it!
Surely its like a 5 minute job???

Oh well.
