  • crystal clear headlights

    looking at getting some crystal clear headlights from the states, is there any difference by way of right hand drive or left hand drive head lights. some listings say rhd. DOES THIS MATTER

    Get RHD drive ones.

      pretty sure the left headlight is stronger than the right headlight in australia because we drive on the LHS of the road and hence it doesn't affect oncoming traffic as much and lights up the LHS of the road better. so in the us it would be opposite ay

        Pretty much. The beam on RHD headlights favors the left hand side of the road, where as in a LHD car the beam would oppose that and favour the right hand side, mostly to avoid blinding oncoming traffic and also to light up the left curb.

                The angle of the lights is adjustable, as per the OE spec single rounds, so you can get around the problem without issues anyway

                    Just for looks. Well, might be a tad brighter than the tinted ones, nothing noticeable though.
