hi everyone ive just joined and need some help. im taking my RX 7 over to Germany and need to know what i am going to have to do to convert the headlights to left hand drive. the car is going to have a MOT test over there so need to get this done before i go.

cheers everyone

you cant beat the german autobahn`s for speed

 

You might have more luck in the regional section. I googled "LHD headlight conversion" and I see several posts on other forums about it. But I still have no freakin' idea what the conversion is or why it's required. Sorry mate!

 

I think, and someone correct me if I'm wrong, but LHD lights are supposed to angle a bit of the beam up and to the right so as to illuminate street signs. Same way with RHD lights except they shoot it off to the left, which in the states and apparently germany, would be into oncoming traffic.

Edited to add that all you should need is a new set of housings that are from a LHD car.

 

All you do need is the headlight housings. This had to be done so i could register and pass inspection in canada of my JDM car

 

JDM RHD fad making it's way into the FD crowd now? What a pity.

 

You can buy new headlights from Mazda to a cost of about 980euros...

 

cheers everyone for the help will look into it
