Did Subaru make LHD HID headlights for the BE/BH Legacy in the European market? If so, how and where would one be able to order or get them? Thanks

Hmm, interesting idea. If they did, you should be able to find them on Ebay in Germany, Netherlands, Finland, etc, with some patience.

i'm bumping this because I'm actually curious if it is possible to "re-aim" the lights? Are they just at a fixed position and there is no chance to move them? On the NA BE lights I thought there were adjusters to adjust the reflector both up and down and sideways a bit. Is this not possible on the HIDs?

Awesome thanks! That will be great info to have for when I tackle my HID's. I really wish I could get the Rev D look with the proper A-C fit. I was wondering if I could swap the backs and fronts but the A-C lights have the lines molded in the front lense vs the D is just smooth.

Thanks for the help.

i think i got my lights aimed but its hard to check in a damn city with all these street lights. as soon as i go out to darker areas i'll take pics. also after looking at my front end i think with a set of a/b/c eyelids the gap could be covered so D lights would look better

if the shape of the lights is different, giving you a gap.
How is the A/B/C eyelids gonna fit rev. D lights?
unless they are flexible.

not really sure how well they'd fit but since most of them just glue on double sided tape it shouldn't be that difficult

Dodik, were you able to adjust the reflectors or just re-aim the bulbs? Please post some pics when you have the chance to...

Thanks

This might have to wait a bit as i've been riding the bike most of this time. i will be going upstate this weekend so hopefully i'll remember to take pics in total darkness

The European models only came with Halogen as far as i know. Tough the reflector is compatible with both HID and Halogen so the output is not that bad.
If you have the GT model(dual bulbs) It will say H7/D2S on the lowbeam and H1 on the highbeam.
