Our W108 is LHD and still has the orignal headlights (complete with tape covering the beam making them legal.

We wish to purchase some stacked headlights:

As the lense size is the same each side, wouldnt it be possible to swap Left to Right lense in order to get the beam correct for our side of the road?

Is this as simple as it sounds?

Cheers
 
:confused: Both lenses direct the light in the same direction. Swapping left and right will make little or no difference to the beam pattern.
 
Doh!, didnt think of it like that

Any idea's? apart from trying to source some RHD versions
 
You can probably get the right thing from an auto electrical dealers or a lights dealer. I suspect the original items will be standard Bosch or Hella items and probably fit a multitude of vehicles.
Probably the same as something like a Ford Capri 3.0...
 
Good idea!
