Left / Right Traffic Conversion For Litronic Headlights

WARNING:
Warning signs (yellow triangle with black high-voltage arrow) indicate high voltage (risk of fatal injury).
- The light must always be switched off when removing and installing these components (control module, ignition unit, gas discharge lamp, servo motor). Once removed, a headlight is not under high voltage.
- The gas discharge lamp (D2S lamp) may only be operated when installed in the reflector and with the headlight installed.
