63 10 Headlight adjustment, RHD/LHD vehicles
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 BMW Z3 and 2001 BMW Z3. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Z3:
When crossing the border into countries where vehicles drive on the opposite side of the road to the country in which a vehicle is licensed, the asymmetric wedge on the low-beam headlight must be covered.
CAUTION:
To do so, use only genuine strip supplied by BMW because the reflector is made from plastic and strips with unsuitable glue could damage the reflector. It should be possible to remove the genuine strip without leaving glue residues. If there are still glue residues, they may only be removed with the cleaning cloth provided or with pure alcohol. Do not under any circumstances use solvents (e.g. paint thinner). This can damage the plastic by discoloring the lens.
