Re: Euro Projector Headlights Wanted
Hi Andrew, is your car RHD or LHD? You mean the ones for the Super model, right?


Re: Euro Projector Headlights Wanted
Yes that's them,
My car is RHD as I am located in Australia
Cheers, Andrew.

Re: Euro Projector Headlights Wanted
The RHD ones are different in that the glass cover is different only; see also this previous topic (a few sources are mentioned too):

In other words, if the glass covers of your car are still OK you can buy the LHD version and just change them. Your choice of possible supply maybe larger.

Re: Euro Projector Headlights Wanted
For the FL / Super models, not sure about only the glass covers being different. There is a metal plate in the lens assembly which creates the uneven light pattern of the LHD cars (light farther on the right side). I believe this metal plate would have to be reversed for the RHD cars, otherwise it would blind the oncoming traffic. I don't see a reason for the glass to be different between the two. That said, I did not have the RHD headlights in my hands. Just my two cents.
It would make sense for the glass to differ for the non-projector pre-facelift headlights though.

Re: Euro Projector Headlights Wanted
Thanks for the replies everyone,
I have tracked down a complete set in the UK which I am going to purchase. They come complete with the metal strip underneath. The only reason I didn't purchase the ones on eBay from Australia is because they do not come with the metal strip. I know it is not necessary but it would unfinished without them.
I'll post up a few pics when they arrive.
Cheers Andrew.

Re: Euro Projector Headlights Wanted
As for the trims, you need at least the trim below the light (if you did not bought the lights with it already) - red metal stripe on this photo: https://shopcar.parts/product_images/00 ... .jpg?big=1
It should be painted in the color of your body.
