Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club | L400 headlights - can you modify them

O.K. now the original mitsubishi headlight has 3mark E13 on each headlight original mitsubishi headlight. if you only have 1 mark E13 on your headlight under TYC made in taiwan its made in for RHD. not left hand drive. i did order this & compare & show to my inspector. we conclude that this is for RHd as per the beam pattern is same as original headlight for L400 from japan.
i call manufacturer TYC taiwan they dont make E13 headlight for left hand drive but only for RHD. so thats the diffrence between this 2 headligth compliance & non complaince headlight
as per what you are saying wetcoat regarding this headlight. me as a dealer & selling this L400 want to cut cost also, as you say its easy to educate yourself to modify this headlight, as per my ipinion its not easy. i did modify this headlight long before my first L400 arrived in april. cannot do it as good as it should be. looks cheap & not L400. you cannot put the headlight for 97 L400 to 94 or 95 L400 it does not fit.
but if you think its easy so pls just send us a sample & will see how it work.
i also want to cut my cost as you say there is a cheaper way but pls hopefully we dont have to hear this bad word about this headlight.we just have to respect each other decision which way to go.
hope this will clear this bad word issue on this topic:
Cheers;

Trust me, people that don't do 10 mins of research before buying a $10,000 vehicle are considered "stupid" in my books.

Dictionary: Stupid: Tending to make poor decisions or careless mistakes. Marked by a lack of intelligence or care; foolish or careless.

You have the wrong guy. Nowhere have I talked about modifying L400 light.

I apologize, I mis-read your post.
It appears you are calling people stupid for PAYING the $1000, and then not GETTING the legal lights. (as in they should have checked them for themselves)
I would argue that there is only so much responsibility on the purchasing party here, and that the fault should lie with the importer, and for that matter, if the purchaser has proof that he paid for $1000 headlights, I would think it would be a pretty easy court case!

Any dealer or private seller for that matter, that sells one of these Delica's without the proper LHD lights, then they (the seller) are liable.

one painted the headlights so they werent visable as headlights any more and mounted Snowplow headlights in the bull bars, they are 100% legal, come with signals and reflectors built in. cost about $300+ for a decent set.

There is no way that would legally pass.

It's funny reading this just now.

On the ferry recently, there was an L400 Spacegear with funny looking lights.

Someone took the original stock headlights, crudely cut them out and inserted square DOT sealed beam lights.

Imagine how that looks and think about excuse the driver can tell the policeman who will write up a notice for government inspection when he/she sees it.
