Adapting headlamps for continental driving
Hi
driving my UK imported xk8 here in Italy I've never flashed other road users.
But now I have to register the car in Italy and the autorities want the headlamps replaced with the continental type.
I have found this adapter on ebay and I wonder if it will be easy to install it in the headlamps...

thanks!
I've removed the headlights in order to prepare the Jag for respraying and observing the deflectors seems enough to remove them, flatten the sheet and then bend it backwards before reinstall. Easier to do than to explain
