Hi All

Off to Monte Carlo in May. One question - how do I convert the xenons for use in mainland Eurpoe where they all seem to drive on the wrong side?

Been a couple of times before and used black tape but the car didn't have xenons.

Appreciate any guideance - remember getting flashed at all round Switzerland until we bought some insulating tape and stuck it all over my nice headlights.
 
Open the upper flap on each wheel arch. Easier if the wheel is turned onto fulllock. Unclip the rear light cover by springing the wire clip down. Wriggle the cover out.

Please remember no lights on if you have Xenon and don't want to Tazzer yourself...

Up on the side of the outer light mounting just by the bulb is a lever. (Hard to explain but it's dead centre of the inspection hole you created whern removing the cover) Slide it up or down and it cuts off the left elevation of the beam.

Reuild in reverse order. Sound scomplicated but should take 2 mins per side

No need for tape that you probably can't get it in the right place anyway and using tape you actually risk melting the light with heat build up.
