The bulbs are defninitely the same, but the shape of the low beam is wrong/backwards for AUDM cars (just in case you're thinking of getting some from USA because they're cheaper)?

As above, I think the reflectors will be geared towards driving on the right, you can fix this, but it's an unsightly sticker you put in front of the beam on the outside of the headlight.

Go turn on your AP1 lights.

The pattern against a wall will look something like this --\__
Us headlights being LHD will will look something like this __/--
The HID cut off is opposite.

I have US spec headlights. Just be sure to NEVER leave high beams on when someone is coming towards you..... You WILL blind them.

Who drives with high beams on anyway. I have Lhd spec and it doesn't blind oncoming traffic, our cars are too low even on the high side you would be lucky to see the hid beam clear an opposing cars door in height.

This is true, I just drop them to low beam no matter what. I feel sorry for oncoming traffic if I left it hi beam.
