Wishieftrottle Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) Hi, someone outside UK can find this info interesting :-) Japan facelift yellowish light Baking 90°C for 8-10 minuts Internals disassembled Little bit of sanding, small sheet of aluminium and 2 rivets made the trick Before MOT in Czech both headlights were LHD upgraded, cleaned and polished and MOT was successful ! :cool: Edited February 13, 2018 by Wishieftrottle (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebas Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 looks nice. I have done something similar on my spare headlights, and after visit on Polish MoT station they are adjusted to continental traffic. now it is much nicer to drive outside UK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wishieftrottle Posted February 13, 2018 Author Share Posted February 13, 2018 Thanks. I was trying to find this kind of phototutorial before I started but no luck. So I hope this will help someone in future to get better idea what to expect Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krister Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 (edited) On pre-facelift headlights this isnt necessary as the beam pattern is DOT type, so it is level. Facelift lights have the ECE-pattern which needs modifying like this. I have sanded the dot pattern flat a couple of times but in Finland it isnt even needed any more, but depends on the country of course.. https://www.retrofitlab.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/dot-ece-cutoff.jpg Edited February 17, 2018 by Krister (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
