This is probably a stupid question but hey ho, I'll ask anyway.....

Does the RS4 have adjustable headlights for driving abroad, or do I need a set of stick on things from Halfords?

I think you can adjust the angle using VCDS if you have adaptive headlights.
Not sure what you do if you don't have adaptives though.

you can change the headlights for Europe using Vagcomm but it isnt something i have bothered with - or the stickers for that matter haha

Your option in VCDS will be for tourist mode, but like toyneg, I haven't bothered with either this setting or Stickers.

What are 'Le Plod' likely to do should I not bother (bear in mind I'm going to Le Mans so is likely to be a higher police presence).... I don't fancy being required to drain my bank account under the watchful eye of the Gendarmes....

Yes you can adjust them with VCDS.

Here is the thread from when I asked about it

i guess they could or would fine you but i have driven a few times over there and havent ever had any issue and i will be in France this Friday and wont bother as when i get back Monday night they would then be wrong for the UK haha

I have adaptive headlights and simply set them into Tourist Mode using VCDS while we're on the train in "The Tunnel".

Done this several times - it's simply brilliant and easy.

Unfortunately I don't own a Vagcom...... So I will risk not having any!

You got non adaptives?

No - I've got the adaptive 'bend when you turn the steering wheel' lights....

Then it's a VCDS job. Non adaptives have a switch inside to change the pattern

I'm off to France Friday too, and wasn't going to bother with the stickers, I'm non adaptive lights so would love to k ow where the switch is located if it's easy to do?
