I was wondering if anybody could help.

My dad has moved to portugal and taken his 2006 S-type with him and is going through the process of 'matriculation'.

He has to change the headlight units to suit driving on the wrong side of the road and has been quoted 800 Euros!

Anyone know a cheaper way to do it, or someone who might have a second hand set or something?

Thanks in advance.

E-bay is the easiest - try E-bay Germany if necessary.
Incidentally, he'll be driving on the right side of the road, as you'll discover if you venture outside the UK... wink

Richard at Bell Lane Garage in Yorkshire had a set for sale on behalf of a client last year, might still have them?
