Can anyone tell me where to place the sticky light beam diverters on my S3.
The ones I bought from halfwits don't have any old cars to show where to place them.
Cheers

Elmo,
I've tried a couple of the 'fancy' converters that bend your beams for the continent.
Suffice to say that in the end I used black insulating tape over the 'flukes' on the glass directing to the N/S.
Bottom line, is that all the new stick-on lens thingies cannot cope with the curvature of the S headlamp glass....All IMHO of course!

There are two types of headlamp beam converters. One type deflects the dipped beam by a series of small lenses, the other masks the diped beam (or you can just use black tape). The dipped beam is formed by a part of the lens pattern (instuctions should be the same as / similar to the old mini).

There was no instructions for the old mini or landrover, or any other car with that style of light.
I will look closely at the lense and see if I can work it out.
