Headlights for driving on the right

Hi all,

We're off to France in the new year and will be going in the RS6, how can I set the lights for euro-driving?

I've checked in the MMI menu and there's no option there and looking on the OBDEleven I've not got the right software version to enable their tourist mode.

Are there any little levers within the light units?

Or is the best bet some of the sticky beam adjuster things?

Physically - Not without taking the headlight apart (no little levers).

Electrically - Maybe, if you have VCDS and are comfortable using it to change adaptions within in - viewtopic.php?f=47&t=133720&p=929753 - but all it does is dip the the Left beam so it doesn't project onto oncoming LHD traffic (good) whilst reducing your visibility of the road (bad).

The end reply is that sticky beam adjusters (and some "sticky stuff remover" to remove residue afterwards) are the better option if you don't have VCDS.
