Hello Everyone,

Another newbie here to the group loving my Fiat 500L and previous to that my Fiat 500 Lounge.

We have recently moved over to Spain and now of course looking into transferring onto 'Spanish' number plates and can see there maybe an issue with the fog lamp headlamp conversion can anyone help please.

I am going to my local dealer today in Cartagena, Spain to hopefully ask the question with a bit of help from Google Translate

Thank you and bye for now

Dave

Welcome to the forum. The quickest and cheapest way to solve your head light issue is to fit a pair of Eurolites on the dipped beam unit. These will stop the dazzle but will also reduce the effectiveness of the dipped beam pattern. The expensive way would be to swap the dipped beam units for ones suited to. LHD Market.

The rear fog light issue is more complicated as the fog and reversing light units would need purchasing (they are not a straight swap AFAIK) and then fitting on the opposite sides effectively swapping them over BUT the wiring would need altering too otherwise the fog light will come on when you select reverse and the reversing light will come on when you switch the rear fog light on.

It may be possible to cross wire across the car but I am not sure what if anything this will do regarding bulb failure warnings etc.
