Driving in Europe

[Matt Cupra R]

Hi All
At the end of July I will be taking my LCR to France for 10 days. Has anyone else driven their UK car in Europe before? Reason I ask is that I will need to get headlight diverters but I'm not sure where to get them from or where they stick to the headlight because there are no markings.

Anyone know?

There is a picture description in the owners manual about where to place the filters for driving abroad...

Did have some pic's somewhere which I'll try & dig out, there was a thread about this that I put the pic's in last time if you can find it...

You can use some tape!! thats what we use, but be careful what you use, cause you don't want trouble taking it off. Always done this method and been to France several times. No complaints.

i cut the beam deflectors for mine and Tris leons from sticky back plastic in red to match the car and it looked cool

Don't forget the rest of the stuff you need over there
Flourescent jacket, spare bulbs, warning triangle, 2 pairs specs (if you wear them) are all compulsory
