Mk 1 projectors in Europe
Does anyone know if the Mk 1 (halogen) projector headlamps in the R75 can be adjusted for driving in Europe or will I need the stick-on deflectors? Nothing in the handbook and old threads suggest the Mk 1’s are not adjustable.

There is a little metal lever inside the light unit that you push across, this switches the beam across to suit driving on the wrong side.

All projectors have a shutter to eliminate the near side kick up ( used in the UK . It's a pig to find the lever end for it first time you use it.

I had absolutely no idea the MK 1 75 had such a gadget. I have never heard of any marque of car that had such things.
Our cars are amazing. They surprise and please us every day. Though sometimes the surprises aren't nice . But I've never known a marque of car that doesn't have the occasional glitch. The 75 is my all time favourite car. |

Not in my handbook it isn't. Height adjustment yes but nothing about adjustment for right hand side driving. But then, my car is a later 2001 that was fitted originally with reflectors before I later changed them over to projectors.
