Quick question...
Is it worth buying headlights for left hand drive cars? I mean, can they be adjusted to suit driving in Australia, or are they completely different?
I can get a set of angel eyes over here for dirt cheap, but of course everyone drives on the wrong/right side.
Should I go cheap, or just get RHD ones?

Check to see if they can be changed to RHD - some have the ability to be changed with a simple adjustment but some can't ( usually why they are so cheap )

If you buy a LHD set you will basically be blinding people coming toward you when driving with your lights on.

I can confirm the FK/Depo angel eyes have an adjuster (RHD/LHD) on the back of them.
