Turbocharger Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 I'm off to Spain on holiday for the first two weeks in September. Does anyone have a set of LHD headlights for driving on the continent that they'd lend? I'm baulking at buying a pair for £30+, though I wouldn't object to loaning some for a tenner, or sharing the cost with someone who'd use them afterwards?

Orgasmic Farmer Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Just stick black insulation over the appropriate bit of the lens. More than adequate. Did me fine for 2 years living in germany! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henk Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Do you only want to be road-legal or do they really need to be of good quality? I think I have some spare ones (but not new) and I will be in your area (Eastnor Castle) the last WE of August and back again end of September in Newbury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbocharger Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 Thanks Henk - would you be willing to put them in the post if I covered your costs? Last week of Aug is a bit late to get them fitted before we get on the ferry. I could do the insulation tape trick (ilke the last time I went abroad) and I don't _plan_ on lots of driving at night, but I'd rather see where I'm going properly if the option's available...

henk Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 Knowing Belgian prices for small packages abroad, it's cheaper to buy new lamps so On Thursday 23rd in the evening I am here: The Deer Park, Eastnor Castle, Ledbury, Herefordshire, HR8 1RL In the afternoon I am with Allisport, Glouchester area Henk ps I drive a lot in UK at night but no problems with my lhd lamps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbocharger Posted August 13, 2012 Author Share Posted August 13, 2012 Henk, In that case, many thanks but I'll decline your generosity. Looks like posting is a no-go (then I'd have to get them back to you) and I'm in London on 23rd so couldn't get up to Allisport. Looks like I'll be using the gaffer tape method!
