Anybody know whether these units are handed? They seem to be more available on ebay in europe than the UK. Or will I blind everybody coming in the other direction?

Cheers

AFAIK, foglight units are never dippable. They are normally mounted low so it's not a big problem, but as they should only be used in fog their intensity isn't a problem (unless some cockjockey is driving around with them on to look cool!).

Wasn't thinking so much about the dippability, more whether the units for a LHD car will point in the wrong direction. More of an issue with the driving light part of the unit than the fogs as they come on with the full beam.

still don't think there's a problem; no-one would notice even if different - you'd see some with tape on to stop blinding if it was a big issue

Search 944 turbo and set it to europe or world wide cheapest is 139 euro's buy now, i think. They have been on cheaper recently. American units are different IIRC.

Yup ECP were the cheapest when I looked.
The glass unit isn't handed as fogs or driving lights aren't LHD or RHD only main lights are & the backing box converts left to right by swapping the drain on the back.
If we ever get some decent weather then I'll fit mine, but the bloody wheels
have to come off to get at the nuts on the back....
