Hi Lenny
How have you changed the headlight beam for EU driving.....can you put the beam on lowest setting and that be OK......or just not bother....😎

Cheers🍻
See #455 Lenny is no longer posting on this thread.

I believe your Benimar Mileo 282 has Fiat headlights, you should find what you need to do in your Fiat handbook. My Ducato Series 9 handbook says “alter the light beam direction by affixing a specially designed self-adhesive film in order not to dazzle the vehicles travelling in the opposite direction.” Lenny has Carthago A Class headlights and these are very different and can be adjusted.

Thanks for reply and regarding "no longer posting "
Have changed to an A class now and Fiat handbook doesn't mention driving in EU.
Only adjustment I can see is height of beam.

Cheers🍻

If it has the round hella headlamps then they can be adjusted by removing the light loosing the screws and turning lamp.

You should find the information in the A Class manufacturers handbook for your motorhome. Might be helpful if you updated the info below your Avatar to remove the Benimar details, I wasted several minutes looking up the Fiat information.

Dammit. That's another job needing done! Great job Lenny.
Now done. Twice I had ripped the grey pipe off on things my navigator didn't warn me about.I hope the new deluxe waste pipe position averts any further disagreements.
