I'm pretty sure they're JDM bB factory headlights for models with HID. It isn't a bi-xenon setup, so hence the need for the dual beams.

Even if you could import them, the beam pattern would have a Japanese/European flare that would send more light to the left side of the road, causing lots of glare for oncoming traffic here in the US.

They do look nice, though.

How would you fix the flare? You can rework headlight optics? :eyebrow:

The discharge headlight (manual leveling function you attach) The color which is closer to solar light setting the discharge headlight which can obtain many light intensity. You adopted also the leveling function which can modify the lighting axis according to the change of the vehicle attitude with loading and the like.

I have a set of those on my car and they have the motor which needs to be opened to be able to adjust the housing since they are self adjust but we don't have the computer which is attached to body, but i have been running with them for about 5 months and haven't got a single flash from other drivers, they do their job and they are the real HID, They are kinda pricey but I like them and can get more if anyone is interested !!! Take care All Sean

Can't fix it. The reflectors and lenses are setup backwards. LHD Beam pattern has the leftt light aimed slightly to the right and the right light shining straight ahead.

RHD has the right light aimed slightly to the left and the left light aimed straight ahead. This means your right light will be shining at oncoming traffic. You also lose a lot of visibility of objects on the right side of the road.

Is the xB/bB sold in Europe (except UK)? They drive on the right hand side of the road (left side of the car) and may have he beam pattern you need in the US.

He is right about loesing some light on the right side but the housing has so much play room and also the hids are bright enough so you will not notice it,right now both of my lights are pointing straight. I got the HID headlight and HID fog light in special deal for $950, but the headlight option by itself is $800 in Japan, JDMP
