    6000k bulbs give whiter light but not as MUCH light as say 4300k or nothing above 5200k. Was thread on here about it awhile ago proving that is so.

      Apparently LED lights require a self-levelling system too, according to ADR 13.

        I was going to ask where you got that from and started reading it myself and writing it all out and seem to have answered my own question:

        ADR13: https://www.comlaw.gov.au/Details/F2015C00543

        Section 6.2.6.2 talks about levelling.

        Point 6.2.6.2.2 seems to say that the manual level winder thing on your dash may mean it's allowed.

        6.2.9 says you need headlamp cleaning device(s) if you're over 2,000 lumens.

        but... you're correct, it seems to say that 6.2.6.2.2 doesn't apply to LED lights... so you need auto levelling

        If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.
