a big problem with the RHD headlights is that the beam pattern is wrong for driving on the right side of the road. If you look at how your car is set up now, the right light aims higher than the left, which is fine since no one is approaching you from that side and it lights up signs better, etc. Installing RHD headlights will blind oncoming traffic and not work as well for seeing on our streets. Definitely think about painting your lights if you want the look.

beam height can be adjusted per side with a screwdriver or socket wrench. Takes about 5 minutes.

no
thats not the problem
pull up to a wall or something and look at the beam pattern
Youll notice the on the ride side of the beam on BOTH lights that there is a triangular section that shine higher
With these headlights, they will be on the opposite side which would blind oncoming drivers
The only way to fix this is swapping the projector housing with the glass ball and everything
But i dont know if thats possible

Ok... Well; thanks to all of you who have given opinions and told what you heard... But I would like to hear from someone that actually HAS JDM headlights... I know someone on Evom must have some installed... Any pics? Anybody who has them already installed that is... Not what you heard or what you read... I have heard and read most of these same things, but I prefer to hear it from someone who has actually installed them...
Thanks.
Thanks.
