As far as functionality goes you'll need a 9006 to H1 adapter for the low beams. That and technically you'll need to modify the light cutoff of the lamps as they're made for RHD and not LHD, otherwise you'll blind oncoming traffic and that's never nice. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

I was told that the adjustments on the lights will allow you to focus the light enough in the direction needed. |

You can adjust them vertically and horizontally, but not the angle which is the issue at hand. RHD beam pattern is like \__ where as LHD is like __/ I suppose you could direct the driver side beams hard right to not glare into traffic, but how usable that light would be I'm not sure. A lot of people that have them have modified the cutoff. Still, that's not going to stop someone that wants them though. Supposedly the modification isn't too terribly difficult.

If you have time and want to do it right go ahead and do the cutoff. As for me. I didn't do it simply because I didn't want to risk damaging a 600 set of headlights. Lol. Plus I haven't had any issues with others.

I'd definitely suggest adjusting them. I did the job on mine and still tend to blind people because of the angle. if you get them, take the time and do it right. it won't hurt to get an HID kit put in correctly while you're at it, too. This is a GREAT price, too! You'll thank yourself when you've done it 100% right!

Thanks for all of the informative info, I have sold many sets of lights to various cars mainly Hondas I never knew this was an issue. I knew it was an issue with the power folding mirrors.

No problem. People with Hondas don't care about others, that's why you never knew.

This will be the biggest help. It's a sticky from: The Interior/Audio/Electrical/Wiring thread.
