Hi,

If I understand you correctly, you want  the Euro type lens to be used with the pictured US. Headlight units to convert to Euro headlights.
That will not work, as the US and Euro headlights basically have no common parts. Reflectors,frames and bulb sockets etc. are all different.
You will need complete Euro HL units to fit the Euro lenses.

Thanks Hans,

Yes you're right my idea, as I prefer european front lights as US front lights, was to change US front lights you see on the picture of the pagode changing just the lens

Thanks again for you fast answer
