    I have a 2018 build RHD Kona electric. I now wish to drive in Europe (LHD). The headlights are full LED auto levelling.
    I have read on the Ioniq forum that there is no need to adjust the lights for driving on the opposite side of the road.

    Does this apply for the Kona too? Or do you need to get a deflector such as the Eurolites?

  3. I don't know what the rules are over there, but for long term use there would be a practical difference. Headlights on low beam are biased toward the passenger side to light up the kerb/shoulder and signs. With RHD lights in a LHD environment the kerb/shoulder will be poorly lit on low beam.
