Default Re: aftermarket headlights

Do you really want me to go Off-Topic that much? Hope nobody else minds.

Worked for a No Such Agency here and took several tours overseas. The Government ships anything I want over there including 1 car. Took the Vette to England from 92-95. It went by ship. Had to change headlights (to reflect on the left side of road), tail lights (added amber turn lights - mandatory) and had to add a 21 watt amber light in back - for fog).

Driving on the right is different to say the least. For first six months had to keep telling myself "stay to the left" but that didn't work a couple times (forgot) but didn't end up in any crashes. It was worse coming back after three years as I kept pulling out to the left over here. A couple scary moments. Even though there are hundreds of Vettes (and lots of other American cars) over there, it still attracted attention no matter where I went. I had another car plus a motorcycle (TRIBSA) to use for work and the wife had her own car plus the weather really sucks so I only put about 3K a year on it.

As far as the plates go. As long as the letters are correct size you can have 2 lines (instead of 1) and all the lettering fits. White plate on front, yellow in the rear.
