hi. spoken to two separate peugeot service centres today asking about adjustment. there's nothing on the back of the lights. in the manual, it suggests it can be done through a 'menu' but again, rubbish. the only way is to use stick on beam benders. shame.

or, as most HGV drivers do when they come over here, don't bother doing anything. It works for them real fine.

I don't suppose anyone has anything to add to the above posts?

I am going to the South of France in September and need to know what to do with the lights. Last time I was in Belgium with the 350Z, I used beam deflectors and trying to remove them after getting home was a nightmare. Never did manage to fully remove the glue residue.

That time was only 4 or 5 days and this time will be nearly two weeks so don't want to really have them on the car for that period of time.

I rarely expect to be out in the dark with the car apart from maybe the odd time where I will be staying. On the way there, the stopover will be in Zurich and at Evry or nearby in France on the way back and I should be in both places by 8pm hopefully.

Well don't bother then, the stickers will be a mare to get off, all they do is cut off the top of the beam, which you could do your self with a wall and whatever, but its still stuck on the lights !
Like I say look at the 1,000`s HGV`s that come into the UK each year and see how many have beam cutters or benders = NONE

As you going to be "not out" at night, why bother ?
I was in Europe (shall we say) for weeks with 5 different cars and never bothered and I drove at night, same as they do over here.

Look around at the Polish reg cars, you must have some, what are they using ? ?

Thanks for the reply. I'll probably take the beam deflectors and keep them in the car just in case I get stopped.

OK, I just asked for you.
Remove the lamp cover off the the back of the headlamp.
Inside you will find up on the right on the RHS a lever, push/pull the lever and it puts a flap across the top of the beam inside the lamp.
Do the same on the LHS but this time the lever is on the left.
Put the rubber covers back on.
