zafira headlight beam adjustment for France

[Martin (5)]

Anyone know to change the headlight beam for driving in France. I can see the adjustment wheels, how many turns does each light need?

I don't know the answer but are you aware you can buy plastic headlamp protectors with the beam deflector pattern pre-printed on them?

These can be bought from your local Vauxhall dealer for £29 but I would be happy to supply them and post them for free.

You need a headlamp converter, beacuse the beam pattern "kicks-up" to one side to light up the pavement - and in France it will be the wrong side!

Also you may find you need to change the colour of the beam - best to check on the rules, then see what you can get. Not sure if a proprietary converter (Halford's stick-on for about a fiver) will do it, or whether your headlamps need something a bit special.
