Anika, please read carefully. If these lights are LHD, as you say, then they are illegal for use on Australian roads




Left or right orientation, neither are legal for use in Australia

They do not meet ADR requirements.

Andrew they are easily converted and the cut off needs to be setup correctly other wise you will blind on coming drivers or have your headlights pointing at the ground.

Damian, do you own a pair?

That's what I've done in the end, fiddling around with them, I made them point to the ground more so its not blinding oncoming traffic. Time consuming as we fix, then test drive, fix, test drive etc

Someone took a few pics and made up a rough tutorial from memory.

Nope I don't own a pair but I have helped a few soarer owners with them.

Just adjusting them won't correct it. You need to pull them apart to do it properly.

As far as I remember with them eBay headlamps the cut off shield is removable and is a separate piece to the housing.

Either flip the cut off shields (at the very minimum) or fit some proper D2S xenon projectors into the headlamps and get rid of the H1 or whatever they are projectors in the housings.

Hey guys i had my brother had bought me a set of the chrome ones off soarer central about a year ago i still haven't managed to install mine they are just sitting in the box until i get my body kit in but when my brother installed his there was no problem apart from the right hand side light started to leak abit so i would advise you maybe re-seal them before you install just to make sure! Also the drivers side light looked like it was pointing abit high? does this mean its a LHD one or a RHD one? whats the real difference? And does anyone know how to wire in the HID's ? my brother nevver got around to it but iv seen another soarer on the road and they look awwsome but we nevver had time to wire the halos in or even know where to start! any help would be great guys!

P.s im still considering swapping for the black coloured halos or doing a mix and match with chrome head lights and black high beams:-)
