The LB has more options than the sedan when it comes to head lights, tail lights, and body kits. At least in america

hey all, the tails are on the way, that part was easy.

The headlights are made for RHD cars only. Does anyone want them like that? I will order some if there is interest, but the cutoff will be for the wrong side.

is it as simple as reversing a cutoff shield?

never dealt with the RHD to LHD switch before so I'm not sure how big of a problem that would be

One thing that might work but someone would just have to bite the bullet and try it (more money), is to get a set of projectors from a single high and low beam vehicle made for LHD and see if the shields will fit in these projectors. You will need to find out what size the projectors are and match them up.
I can do it. I know a place to get oem projectors that are between $50 and $150. But
if your gonna swap out the projectors, you might as well just do a retrofit on the factory
headlights.

That would be easier, but wouldn't you still need to open up the headlight? Or are you talking about the cut off shield on the bulb itself?

Yes, I think that's what is needed. Pretty sure you'd have to open them up to do this mod.

Pricing is not set yet, I need to see how much the shipping is going to be, either EMS (faster) or air cargo (cheaper).

I have a shipment of the tails on the way now. they are including one set of headlights for test fitting and to check quality. If they are any good, I'll be ordering more.
