Headlight adjustment

[JM2012]

Are headlights for LHD and RHD the same but just setup differently or are they completely different units?
Just wondering as I saw these but noticed they were for LHD.

Oe Bosch and hella lights can be switched for right or left side traffic, no idea about those ones though, and impossible to tell from the pics.

all you may hav to do (easily) is swap over the outer units, or ajust via the ajusters, very easy

Swapping the outers side to side won't work, as they both dip the same way.

You need to be able to rotate the mask inside the headlight.

Oe hella and Bosch lights have this built in, you just loosen three screws and rotate the back on the lamp.

They are neither bosch nor hella, they're depo, so no idea whether they have the same adjustment as the oe fit lamps, you'd either need to see them in the flesh, or find someone else who already has a set.

Speak to rav on here he can give your original lights the smoked look or possibly supply you with a ready made set

those ones pictured look like they can be rotated to suit either LHD or RHD, you can see the slots in the picture of the rear of the units.

Thanks for the responses guys, I shall see what the seller has to say and let you know.

According to the seller they are not adjustable to RHD and are not available in RHD versions either.

I agree with kam, if they are actual photos of the units, then I am pretty confident they can be adjusted, but its not something I would want to risk £200 on...
