Currently converting my s2000 to facelift and cannot find a n/s headlight anywhere!
Im not willing to pay £950 for a brand new one

The only 2 options I have is to sit the car up until one comes up for sale or purchase a LHD one from the states

My question is am I right in saying that the s2000's hid's come from the factory "flattened out" instead of spiking to the left or right??

I've had a search of the forum and found an answer for the pre-facelift headlights, where Honda stated you do not need headlight beam deflectors if you plan on driving abroad, I am not 100% sure if this applies for the facelift lights also

I do not plan on driving my car at night and plan on fitting a beam deflector for the MOT if required

There is a shield in front of the projector which deflects the beam, it has a step in so the hard shoulder side is higher than the middle of the road but you can flatten this with a file to make it rhd compatible



You can even file it deeper so it steps the other way, make sure you paint the shiny filed edge so it doesn't distort the beam.

Ah brilliant, thanks for the fast reply buddy

Would a beam deflector work temporarily until I have time to do this or is this a must?

WinFreak

Oh it'll work fine, the top of the beam might be a bit odd with a lhd and rhd one. Reckon it would even be MOT proof tbh, the step in the beam is only tiny.

Ok great many thanks for the reply

Just bought one from the US
