Euro Headlights RHD to LHD?

[m3f_frbz]

Interestingly the Japanese Spec Bosch lights cannot be switched to a left hand drive pattern. They do not have the pronounced up tick to the right seen in euro halogens. Rather they have the typical HID bump up but to the left.

Hey guys, i recently bought a japanese e36 M3 and live in Belgium. Since i have the Bosch H1 headlights on it already, i dont wanna lose them. Is there a way to change it into euro spec headlights?

Those are already "euro" spec headlights, don't change them out.

The silver one?

Japanese are listed as a specific part number on realoem. I've never seen one in person so I can't confirm if it's just a simple RHD to LHD projector rotation as shown earlier in the thread.

The lights are pointing/peaking to the left side.

True! From target cars, you know more about it?

I could not switch mine. See earlier comment on this thread.

What you described doesn't make sense. Halogen projectors have a similar cutoff to HID however it isn't as critical due to being less blinding than HID. Maybe you can document the difference? I'm doubting there is one, but maybe.

The beam patten is different and does not convert to left hand drive when rotated. I will see if I can take a picture to explain it.

You sure? Even the pattern on the ones talked about earlier don't really look right either.



I'll see if I have a cutoff shield pic somewhere.

Target?


I thought you bought this one:

Since you're from Belgium and this is located in The Netherlands and I can't imagine many Japanse imports floating around here. Silver as well.
