1.7 Converting headlights for use when driv‐
ing on the left or right
Note
To avoid dazzling oncoming traffic with asymmetrical lights,
♦
both headlights should be converted to the direction of traffic
(driving on the left or right) relevant to the country in which the
vehicle is being driven.
The corresponding headlight conversion set consists of two
♦
sections of film.
Conversion of the headlights is not designed as a permanent
♦
conversion for other countries. It is only suitable as a „tourist
solution" for a short stay abroad.
Both headlights of a vehicle must always be converted.
♦
The information on „right" and „left" on the masking film always
♦
relates to the direction of travel when looking forwards from
inside the vehicle.
