LHD to RHD Headlights
Morning all,
I have had my LHD C2 for over a year now and still have not got around to changing the headlights for RHD ones. I have simply had patches over the correct part of the lenses in order to avoid the wrath of other blinded drivers and in order to pass the MOT.
I have been offered a set of RHD lenses so I was wondering what is needed to change over the headlights. I know on some cars you can simply twist the bulb fixing to convert them to the other side but I do not know if this is the case with Porsches. Is there some simple quick fix for this or do I need to buy an entire new headlight assembly?
Regards,
Jim.
