Putting LHD european headlights in UK reg cabriolet

Postby expatter » Fri Sep 28, 2018 2:14 pm

Hello all,
I have a UK reg 2006 cabriolet. Having semi retired I want to spend winter in Spain.
Does any one know how interchangeable (or not) LHD and RHD headlight units are?
I have found a German supplier of the headlights (quotes via a garage and Renault seemed very high). But am finding it difficult to get info from UK dealers about how compatible the units are.

Any help and advice would be warmly welcome. I'm looking forward to topdown days in Nov to March

Cheers

They fit fine it just the lens inside the lamp that's different
Pain in the ass job to do as you have to take bumper off
Just make sure to get right ones as facelift ones are different shape
