Headlamps RHD LHD
Xtremeteam:
--- Quote from: "petergalileo" ---mmm, idea was to bend the beam the UK way from a pair of non UK headlamps, but I suppose with those metro products ones you could just put them on the other way round.
I have (or will shortly) be getting a pair of Disco 3 headlamps, I am completely deranged and am going to try and fit them onto my Discovery 1. I purchased the lights (bargain from ebay) but realised they are for RHD countries. I thought what I would do is assuming I can get them to fit at all, I would use them with beam benders till I can get a pair of UK spec ones.
The I will Auction the RHD lights on Ebay france or another RHD country.
Lights were £100 for the pair and included the HID bulbs.
By the way, A stretch discovery sounds interesting, any pictures ?

can i just ask incase ive missed something but you are planning on fitting a pair of RHD disco 3 headlights into you Disco 1? which is also RHD?
petergalileo:
RHD - Driving on the right hand side of the road
LHD - Driving on the left hand side of the road.
Thrasher:
Peter - I hope you realise that you must fit headlamp washers and *SELF LEVELLING* capability to the vehicle to run with HID Xenon lamps. You are in violation of C&U, SVA and I think MOT rules if you do not.

there is that aswell,to get the lights to work i think then need a ballast box & ECU doofer
petergalileo:
Washers...got those. Self leveling...mmm...thats an idea, will have a think about that, I reckon its dooable.
But I didnt realise HID lights were to be treated any different to standard lights, but seeing as they are mega bright it seems reasonable that they could be, will have to look into it.
I dont actually think the disco will be able to accomodate them anyway, but I am going to have a good go at it !
