Two wrongs don't make a right etc but we always are warned that it's a requirement and we'll face hefty fines in Europe if we don't alter our lights the authorities will even say you have fitted them incorrectly and fine you, what is the actual law though? the only requirement is so that you don't dazzle on coming drivers bit odd as that is the very job of a DRL - that's another subject though.
In the UK how many LHD vehicles do you see wearing beam adaptors or cut off tapes that are fitted with RHT lights?
I got pulled over by the Police in France because I had UK plates trying to say my headlamps as they didn't have stickers on them were illegal and was going to fine me! erm the smart Roadster has Hella units which you can physically switch to which ever traffic - which is what I do at the ferry terminal it takes about 20 minutes, you can't put stickers on projector lamps effectively! when I showed him the beam was set to RHT the same as their car.
All I got in the way of an apology was a very slow check of my paper work checking my tyres and the rest of the cars lights were functioning some comment about the reversing and rear fog being handed wrongly and then some grumpy dismissal of us.
They were purely being nasty as we were on UK plates.
I wonder if the UK Police targeted foreign vehicles lights in the UK how soon it would be before we got ordered to desist by Europe?
Reading some other forums from Europe to UK a lot take the attitude they don't bother as so many headlights over here are poorly adjusted, others that it's not a requirement as far as they are aware.
One of those subjects that makes my blood boil you may have spotted!
As the Mog uses effectively landrover 7" lamps the cut off would be the same for them tape or adaptor wise.
Careful of the adhesive on the tape used for any period of extended use probably okay on actual glass but it can effect polycarbonate lights.
