I'm trying to determine which is correct lens pattern for US right hand driving. My spider senses tell me to order a LHD to keep from blinding the oncoming traffic in the left lane. Is this correct?
Regardless of what lens you choose, the beam pattern of the LED bulb will still be problematic as the lenses are designed for halogen bulbs and will necessitate your pointing the headlamp downwards to get the cutoff where it should be. The only way to fix this is to A: purchase a sealed LED unit, or B: purchase an LED bulb with provisions for adjusting the cutoff.
