Default lr3 with lr4 lights change from RHD to LHD

good afternoon. I am new here and wanted to check if anyone here is able to help me. i have been going trough the treads and not found what i am looking for. the issue i have is that I bought my first LR3 (LR4 facelift) last year and as I was taking it to the car inspection place today I was not able to get a full inspection because of the headlights they are RHD. I have been going through all videos about how to change the setting (over to LHD) and noticed that they are for another lights and look nothing like my lights. cant seem to find any info how to change it.
sorry if there is a thread already with the same info.
BTW I live in Iceland
pics of lights

not shore what the adaptive features do but they told me that the lights were set up for right hand drive so the beam is always going into the cars of oncoming traffic. As i have seen on some youtube vids that it is possible to switch from rhd to lhd on the lights with a leaver next to the bulb but not on these so i wanted to check if anyone here has done it or knows how to do it

That's kinda what I meant by the adaptive feature, but also part of the auto-leveling. Basically the lights "aim" for you using a set of servos, and if it's a LHD v RHD the beam will be biased accordingly.

And being that they aren't D3 lights there wont be a function to change from RHD to LHD in the CCF.

Luthersoring, maybe try the facebook group or Disco3 UK forum.

I'm surprised there isn't any adjustment that can be made. Doesn't seem likely they would produce a separate headlight assembly for L vs R.

Take a look at this video and see if your lights are like those shown and give it a try. They mention France during the process.

Except he doesn't have D3 lights so he needs the process that corresponds with the D4 lights hes fitted.

I read that, it just did not register.
Here is the D4 service manual page 3553. Best I can do for the D4



However, this may not work either. Seems the label says RHD LHS (Right Hand Drive; Left Hand Side), so these things may not be adjustable on the non NAS cars.

Did you happen to figure this out? I'm kinda having the same issues only reverse. I have a 2011 LR4 LHD in the states and I'm bringing it back to the UK. I have the Xenon headlights and the interior of the low beam looks the same as your photo. No lever, just a gear that looks electronic that adjusts the dip down until it's flat. Apparently on the models with Auto-highbeam you can change the country settings but not sure if this changes the dip because I don't have that feature. Not sure if the IID tool could adjust but that would be cheaper than new headlights I would think. If I had the newer Discovery 4 Conversion done I would swap with you but that would be too simple. Let me know what you find out!
