Has anyone else swapped headlamps over from RHD to LHD units (or possibly and more likely the reverse) - I’m keen to learn or hear from anyone’s experiences whether this is a driveway job, or as the local VW garage says: a £3k+ task?
We’ve moved to Germany, not sure if it’s permanent or just a year or two. We’re planning on keeping our UK RHD T6, but to get insurance here it needs to have mainland Europe (LHD) spec headlamps fitted. We have a 2018 Sportline with OEM LED lamp units, which for now we’ve enabled Travel Mode to reduce dazzle. I can source 2nd hand equivalents here, but wondered whether there are any different mounting points, cabling, or vehicle coding to be looked into - no doubt it’d never be as simple as a ‘plug and play’ headlamp.
Thanks in advance if anyone has any helpful contributions
