Question Headlights LHD v RHD

Hi Chaps

I know that the headlight lense covers are different on a LHD to a RHD car but need to know if the actual light units are also different as when removed they look exactly the same.

Can anybody confirm if the same or not before I buy a set of RHD for a LHD car?

Many thanks,
Mark

Hi mate. Insides the same. You can change the angle ofthe bulb via the level for LH/RH.

Cheers

^^ +1

When I moved my car to the UK I just had the angle changed. Reversed the process when I brought it back. Joy all around.

Excellent chap

I notice that the US 993 cars have a chrome bezel trim around the covers - does this mean that they are different to the European covers. Mainly asking because the US 964's had H5 bulbs and Euros were fitted with H4 which were a lot better. I think this was the same for the Japanese market also but not 100% sure.
