He's already confirmed it has a switch but ideally some pics of the beam pattern up against a wall should answer if there is a kick up in the right place. Normally best at about 5 meters or so away from a wall at least.

As I mentioned to the guy that Pm'd me earlier.

This is the beam pattern STRAIGHT OUT THE BOX. I haven't aligned them, or faffed or twisted or pulled anything yet. And tbh, not sure if there is any point as they don't glare, don't shoot off light in random directions, they just light up the road.

They are less than £180 guys. If you want perfect, I'll give you a link for some £600 2nd hand genuine xenons.

Thanks for the pics. Not bad beam pattern but clearly currently set to LHD as you can see the kick up. You're right headlight is also set higher than your left so almost certainly would be blinding on coming traffic.

Appreciate they were relatively cheap and I'm not meaning to make this sound like a witch hunt - if you're happy with them, great- that's what really matter. I guess I'm a bit anal about these things.

Id ideally like to see what these look like when set to RHD and aligned properly.The set of depo projectors/hid kit i had on my Mk4 had the same pattern before being set up properly. Once aligned correctly they were spot on. Passed several MOT's and the tester even commented on how nice they looked.The pic Red6688 posted was the same sticker i had on my old ones.Obviously these are different style lights but as long as the switch is there we should be able to get them set up well enough i hope.
