Message : I've got a friend who spoke with Nismo about selling the 99 oem lights in the states and at Nissan dealerships. Nismo told him it was not legal to install them in the US, the aiming of the headlights is setup for RHD vehicles. My friend asked if you could just re-aim the headlights, the Nismo rep said its not that easy. He said the way the lenses are made is to shine light on the side of the road the driver is on, like the driver side of US head light is molded to aim forward and to the left to illuminate the side of the road, RHD is opposite and will shine on the opposite side of the road. I dont know if this was BS but the source was pretty good. Let me know if there is any truth to this.

Our LHD vehicles are setup the same way. This is why you see someone post as to why the one side is always brighter than the other...
