Change them over today and leave them like it for now Thumbs Up Mine are still set flat from August when we went to europe...

The lever moves your lights from RHD to neutral not LHD so you can use the neutral setting anytime Thumbs Up

Believe it of not Stan, there are more than 10 market places for the 322 headlamps hence the neutral lever for the headlamps... Meaning you can travel on most continents with the headlamps in that setting Thumbs Up

Craig
Is there any disadvantage to the neutral setting in relation to RHD? i.e. does it light up less of the road?
I always feel that my headlights light up far too much of the left hand pavement and not enough of the road. Neutral might be a better option?

i got this from the WSM its the euro spec and it doesnt look like theres that much difference from the 'wide' spread of the beam..
the second pic has just been flipped to try and simulate the UK beam spread..
'A' is the xenon btw..

Thanks chaps Thumbs Up I guess the best thing to do is flip the headlight switches to the other setting then see what it looks like. If I've read it right I won't be blinding oncoming cars in England by doing so. For 'elf and safety I will put them back to RHD setting after. Whistle 2012 5.0L S/C
