On my mk1fiesta i put it on for ford fair got 20 mile down the road and was asked to remove it but depends where you are, how much of a idiot of a copper you get, and if they even notice dude. Me and my Dad put it onto the Caterham for a trackday and didn't take it off for a while, driving it on the road in that time.
I've driven home from track days and left it on because I've forgot about it. Don't really see much point though. I use black insulating tape or duct tape, whatever I've got at the time. Some track day organisers tell you to put it on to try and stop shattered glass going on the track if you break a headlight.
Personally i wouldnt see a big problem with it although it depends on the copper on the day type thing tbh too save any hassel occuring id leave it untill you arrive at the track and do it then as its a two secound job. I have tape over my headlights constantly, never been pulled for it, the way I see it is that if things which cover much more of the headlight i. Including not taking off euro beam deflectors when driving on a uk road. What I mean by Euro beam deflectors is the other way round- when Europeans come here.
Surely that blocks out a large part of the main light? It's illegal to drive left hand drive headlights on uk roads without beam deflectors. It doesn't mean it's ok to obstruct part of the beam pattern on rhd headlights, these are two completely different issues.
If you are doing track days then stick tape on when you get there doing the pre-track checks in the pits and then remove it at the end before you go back onto public roads to drive home! That's what I do unless I forget to remove it as I have done once or twice. You need to be a member in order to leave a comment. Search Advanced search…. New posts. Search forums. Log in.

Thread starter AndyF Start date Dec 13, AndyF Registered User. Quite some time ago I posted a problem with my main beam lighting up the side of the road and not the area in front of me. I then realised that my headlights were totally crossed over so the left one was illuminating the right side of the road and vice versa. I was able to adjust them up and down but that was it.
I Googled it and found a couple of others had the same issue but they didn't seem to have an answer to the problem. Nevertheless, they are a popular component in the tuning scene because they easily conjure up a new look for the vehicle by changing the light pattern of the headlights. By the way, there is more about headlights in our large overview " Headlights from halogen to LED to xenon - an indispensable companion "!
Crosshairs for headlights are components that can be retrofitted to the vehicle. They are available either in the form of completely new headlights with integrated crosshairs, or in the form of two plates that are built into the existing headlights afterwards.
Simply covering the headlights with tape is not recommended and can cause a lot of trouble during checks. If the crosshair is already installed in accessory headlights and these come with an ABE or a parts certificate, then it can be assumed that use in road traffic is possible without any problems.
A subsequent installation is usually illegal. Our goal is that the largest German-language tuning dictionary Tuning Wikipedia and to explain tuning terms from A to Z easily and understandably. Almost every day we expand this lexicon and how far we are, you can HERE see. Soon the next one will be Tuning scene concept be illuminated by us.
