New clear headlights

Went to get the Gen4.5 clear headlights from the ebay store today. Ended up checking out the differences between the Gen4 and Gen4.5. Initially I could not see any difference, so I ended up purchasing the Gen4.5 headlights only and hoping like crazy they fit without modification. Fortunately they do. I will post pictures when I get a chance but they sit flush using the old headlamps mounting frames. I only changed the left hand side light so that I can compare the two lights.

So next was to adjust the beam so that the new pattern matched the old. I oddly found that I couldn't match the beam so I left it as it was getting dark. When I reversed the car and saw the beam :O the new headlight's beams were for LHD vehicles!!! No wonder why it was cheap huh? Anyway, this will not adversely affect the final result as the projectors will be for RHD.

Tomorrows job will be to put the old headlight back in and store away the new one until my projectors arrive.
