LHD headlights

[thebiglad]

Hi all, I recently picked up a 2005 75 Connoisseur Tourer in England and need to change the headlights for lhd, for driving in France permanently.

Anyone got any ideas where I might pick up a pair at even halfway decent prices.

Cheers
Dave

if you remove the inspection catch and look at the back of the headlights you will see a rod to change the beam pattern to suit.

now what I am unsure of is if that would do you as a permanent fix or not but it may do as a temp measure.

Does this apply to non-zenon projector lights please?

I'm not sure what you mean by "the inspection catch"? Is that the panel in the wheel arch? Or something else altogether?

Many thanks for the reply

hey Dave, yes this also applies to the projector headlamps and correct again the hatch in the wheel arch.

Like I said im not sure if this would do you as a temp or permanent fix but it would do you at the moment.

Well it's got to be worth a go hasn't it?

Many thanks Tom

Not a problem, remember let us know how you get on

Not trying to confuse but are the normal projectors different from the xenon's?

Only mention it as the levers on my last xenon equipped 75 were under the rubber covers on the back of the main beam.

I've been looking for FIVE years now and still haven't found any at sensible prices.

There was one set on E-Bay for 1,200 Euros !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Been using stick on deflectors for the time I've had my Rover 75 here ( in France. ) and it goes through the CT OK every time.

You might be lucky and have a sensible bloke in the testing station near you.


Bon chance, mon ami.

This local (Sweden) ad caught my eye the other day. Guy selling headlights asking for 500kr (doesn't say if it's for the pair or not) which is just short of £50. Nothing to do with me other than trying to be helpful.

Mejla - mail link.

Will help language wise if needed, but most Swedes cope well with English, pm me if necessary.

Regards
