Thanks, I actually got a set from Halfords (£5 I think) - would prefer the black tape I think. Its OK to fit them from now - will only reduce light levels somewhat (but - hope - to be travelling in the UK in daylight anyway! delays to Dover permitting!)

Hi
Could you please have a look at the thumbnail pics I posted recently and confirm the tape goes on the wedge shape section that is slightly clearer than the rest of the headlamp and on the left hand side as I look at the front of the car or from the drivers seat?? also is it put on the same place on both nearside and offside headlamps?? I can't find any info in owners handbook or Haynes manual?? Pls excuse my ignorance but your help is appreciated. Thanks Col |

I've used the same pair for a couple of years now, and regularly drive to work in Europe. |

Looking at the car from the front, the stickers should be on the left hand side of each outer lamp. It looks completely wrong when you do it, but my guess is the shape of the reflectors throw the light from right to left and vice versa. |

If that is true using black tape, gaffer tape etc might not be such a good idea depending on how long they stay on. Ours needs to be on for about 2 months. All answers on a postcard pls! |
