hello,

For RHS drive, such as Australia, UK, etc, can one just swap left & right headlight ecode lenses to make them LHS drive as in the US?

can the headlight lenses change that easily and fit?

i read in the archives that you can do this.

thanks,
byron golden

No, I do not think so. However, I am running Australian square lights on the 79 GT and it does not seem to bother oncoming traffic. No one flashes their lights (or anything else) at me.

Robert, thanks.
did you do anything different to aim your lights a little lower because of the opposite cutoff?

Yes, I did aim them as I thought normal H4's should aim. The high beams get a real good reaction from people ahead of me, but low beams seam to be OK with oncoming drivers.
