I am going to register my FR-V (currently UK reg, 2006 car) in France. Therefore I need to change the dipped beam, which in most cars means changing the whole headlamp. I am really struggling to find any LHD headlight unitss, at a price which is anything like sensible, so I just wanted to check if anyone had had any experience of adapting the existing RHD headlamps ? There's no hidden adaptor (BMW style), or work-around???
Changing them to Xenon seems to be illegal and doesn't create a decent, sharp light pattern which the French Controle Technique looks for.
My question sounds a bit daft, but I have to ask..
I have been looking for used (or even new) headlight units in Germany, France, Spain, and the best match of price & quality which I have found thus far are in italy.
Stuck on external light benders don't satisfy the criteria.
Second part of that question, the 2007 facelift, did that change the headlight units, or are they constant right through from 2004-2009 ?
