Hi Guys, I'm going to France next week and I had to buy some of the daft light deflicters, but my question is how come there is never 1 for our P38 headlights in the instructions. Even looked under Landrover and all it has is the Defender and Freelander, I don't fancy getting pulled over by LeFrog on route. Any ideas.

You are unlikely to get pulled over once away from the port. You can find out where to put them by trail and error at night with the dip beam on, you just have to blank the spike of light that goes up on the left. Where are you headed? Do I need to reserve the recovery trailer?
 

Try this, it gives a pretty good explanation. A lot of English over here fit these instead of changing their lights on the cars they import. ;)
 
Recovery truck not needed,but thanks heading to Lille, so was thinking just to turn the light by the ajusting them to the right. If I could not figure out where to fit them.
 
Hi Mate, so what is the mod your taking about, the only thing I canthink of is taking a lug of the bulb surround. Is that what your taking about.

If you look at the back of the headlight where the bulb mounts, there are 3 slots where the tangs of the bulb locate. two of the slots are wider then the tangs, only the top slot is a close fit. If you bend the top tang back, the bulb can be rotated in the wide slots to the LHD position. With a small downward adjustment of the nearside headlight they are fine for Europe.
