Beware not to buy North American Acura TSX headlights as they are designed for left-hand-drive.

What's the difference?

What's the difference?

The lights are aimed opposite to ours as they drive on other side of the road.

Can't you adjust the lights? Like a headlight alignment?

the beam angle would be based on the projector lenses and reflector design. i don't think you can do much by adjusting any of the mechanical bits..

you could take them apart, add mirror bits and pieces on the reflector and do trial and error and get RTA's engineering certificate, etc etc.... :p

I recently adjusted the headlight on my euro to beam more to the driver side and higher... There's 2 screws that you can adjust head light with
