R230 SL - Xenon Headlights in Europe

[JonLittlechild]

Can I just confirm, is it a dealer job to switch my headlights over to driving on the wrong side of the road? I've popped the back off one of the Xenon units but there's no obvious little switch to fiddle with.

Thanks,

Jon

Only works if they are bi-zenons I believe. The switch is very fragile and I have heard tell that it breaks very easily - the guy at my dealer (Blackburn) did it in under 2 mins at no charge

Thanks for that. How do I tell if they're Xenons or Bi-Xenons?

Aha, thanks Gollom. I'd done a search back in March when I got the car and not found anything definitive. That was before these two threads!

Cheers,
