RE: My Cars damage update 2





Headlamps for UK right hand drive will not work on US left hand drive as you
will blind oncoming traffic. The lense pattern is the opposite.

Did we ever get a definitive answer as to if the headlights for
left-hand-drive cars (like in england, and other places) are different
from those on right-hand-drive cars.

I think most lights are biased to have the beams stay on the driving side
of the road, that way oncoming traffic is not blinded. But if this is
not the case, then more sources for used euro-lights are available to
everyone.

Just thinking out-loud......
