Hi, does anyone know of an easy way to change which way the LED headlights aim? I'm planning a trip to the south of France next year and wondered if there's a better alternative to those stick on beam deflector thingys!
 
This seems to be an amazing and crazy HOAX.

How your car lights can adjust automaticaly and do not be autoturning to the curves, but static??
How your car lights can adjust automaticaly in case you do not have GPS (lower media system without nav) but you have LED lights??

As I know, LED lights are automatically adjusted ONLY on horizontal level, not on vertical.
I would not be surprised if Ckpearce91's lights are (were) too low so he did not flashed anyone during his trip to the Europe.

Or is this real for UK market only??
Why the hell then SEAT did not make them cornering lights?
Why the hell then SEAT is offering media system without nav if you need GPS for this?
Is it vice-versa applicable if I would ride to UK with mine EU car?
This seems to me unbelievable..

I don't think the lights adjust at all... I think they are just "acceptable" to use abroad as they are.

Mine adjust on a vertical level automatically, I.e up and down.

Agreed, the manual states:

"The light distribution that the halogen and
full-LED headlights of the SEAT Leon range
have allows the specific “tourist light” values
to be met without the need for stickers or
changes in the settings."

Yes, correct, I meant horizon is adjusted automatically (up/down).

As I wrote - lights are too low, that's why they could be used in UK & EU as well.
I am 99.9999% sure there is no GPS based setting which will adjust lights left/right based on where you drive, if UK or EU. :rofl:
 
The beams are flat ____ so no need to adjust from \__\__ to__/__/

Definitely not a flat beam pattern with the LEDs, in fact very similar to a car with halogens I found. The image below is SEAT Leon LEDs left and Audi A3 Xenon right:

It actually amazed me that you can legally use them abroad without adjustment as I find the "flick" on the beam pattern quite high... but if SEAT says so then that's all you need to care about!

Mines are for sure ___/ ___/, not flat.
The same shape as on the pic below, just on the other side (EU).
