Conversion to symmetrical low beam
beam in countries in which traffic drives on the opposite side of the road from the country where the vehicle is registered. This prevents glare to oncoming traffic. When using symmetrical lights, the edge of the road is not lit as widely and as far ahead as normal.
Have the headlamps converted at a qualified specialist workshop as close to the border as possible before driving in these countries.
Conversion to asymmetrical low beam after returning
Have the headlamps converted back to asymmetrical low-beam headlamps at a qualified specialist workshop as soon as possible after crossing the border again.
