Default LW Focus aftermarket headlight units.

Hi all, I saw some headlight units with built in DRL for the ford focus lw on ebay. Are they any good ?

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/230916691...84.m1423.l2649


It say they're for Left hand drive. Does that mean cars driving on the left side of the road or the driver sitting on the left side of the car ?

As they are priced in US$ I would guess that they mean cars with left hand drive, i.e. drive on the right-hand side of the road. I don't believe them when they say they can be easily adjusted for right-hand drive.

The lens in the light is different for a LHD car, they point the light to the opposite direction our cars do, so you'll be blinding everyone.

I don't think the units are for the LW - wrong shape. They're labelled 2008+

Yeah I contacted the seller - Left or Right hand drive is where the steering wheel is in the car.
Oh well give those factories a couple of months to make the Right handed ones and the prices would have gone down by then.

They do look very good, but they're from the U.S. so I would check that they do them for countries where we drive on the left-hand side of the road.
