If my mates GMC Silverado can pass the SVA & MOT's with it's original lights then i'm sure you can do something with your lights. Don't give up just yet as i'll ask my mate what he did, if anything  :-/

Deffo naughty.

Nip and ask Gee's if he has some european deflectors in the morning, they are stick on for driving abroud

Forget the above, ours will be for RHD to drive on foreign roads. or maybe he has them for people to drive LHD in the UK

Look on Ebay for some LHD beam deflectors.

That was the only idea I could think of.

Other one is to sell them and get some RHD, and dont buy them off the German Ebay like Craig did.  ;D ;D

Bit of a bad pic, but as you can see, the kick up should be to the left, to light the pavement and not other drivers faces :(

Shame as thouse lamps look well

Dam camera phones...

Stuck a pair of tights over the lens in the end, should make it easier to see the pattern now

Shame this hasn't work out for you :(

Look the titties 8-)


Just out of interest, are they tinted, or are they similar to the ones i've seen on the bay for around £120 IIRC with the black backing (projector bit)???

From the moment I picked up your book until I laid it down, I was convulsed with laughter. Some day I intend reading it.
