Hi, I just joined and need some advice on whether I can convert rhd headlamp beams to lhd to drive in Poland (where I have moved to). Audi here have said I have to change the lamp housing all together and charge me a fortune for the privilege, but I am sure there is another way. Please help me save some time and money. Had to change them for UK when I brought the car back from Turkey so don't want to have to buy yet another set of lights.
Thanks

Hi there
it can not be done useless you have HID's on the B6..
You will after get a replacement for LHD.. unless you just want to run them on a low setting...however if your living there you will have to sort them

I thought all 'projector' type headlights had a lever which is basically 'flipped' and it angles the beam to the right. This was the case on my MG ZT and the Hymer motorhome.

well i had the headlights out and tried to do it.. even tried taking the housing out and outting it in the other way... would not work...
As i said this can be done on the ones with HID's tho.
Cheers

Just checked, as you say, only Xenons have the lever. the rest need the plastic deflector sticker.
