I need new lows but I dont have the money for projectors, I found some JDM lights for pretty cheap, they look just like the stock ones except they have the separate driving lights in them.

1. Does any one know if these still need to be converted to LHD?
2. If so would it be any different than converting the projectors?
3. And what would it take to hook up the extra driving lights?

Thanks In Advance
Mike,

Mike,


let me share with my humble opinion biggrin.gif

1. Yes... and no wink.gif. European stock ones and JDM non-projectors looks almost the same. Main difference is in glass. LHD glass of head lamp has different "grooving" (hope you understan what I mean) witch refracting light different (to other side) than RHD one. So it's different...
2. ..., but there is no way how convert it... Damn... actually there is, but I'cant explaint that (insufficient English) and it's just temporary solution... It's kind of "what to do when visit RHD country with LHD car" instruction. So... forgot about that (agree with azian_advanced's post wink.gif)
3. I belive you talking about "parking lights" (those lights are mandatory in Europe and they are turend on together with low beams all the time)

And those lights are just part of stock distribution circuit in Europe,...

...so if you want make them work you must find some "work-around" solution wink.gif

Hope that help.
