    Dear All,

    I will be driving in Europe in a couple of weeks time. I have Xenon headlights fitted to my 2007 Passat, and I need to adjust the beam so as not to dazzle oncoming traffic.

    I did some searching on the Internet, and it seems that all I need to do is locate a switch somewhere on the headlight housing that adjusts the toggles RHD/LHD. The info pertained to other models though. I tried to locate the switch on my car, with no success.

    Can anyone help me on this?

    Thanks

    Might be worth having a look at an earlier thread on this:

    thanks,

    but I believe that there is a switch, as the manual states that to drive to Europe:

    1) the 'bending' needs too be turned off (wonder why; I can do this myself through VAG-COM)

    2) the passenger light needs to be manually adjusted. I guess that this is where the switch comes in - but have not found it yet. Must be in a pretty awkward position!
