    2000 is 4 years older than mine. So will probably be in a similar condition with pretty bad surface corrosion!? The problem is the VIN on the chassis was marked/ punched not very deep at all. Apparently its a common issue. In England its not...

    Yes they are the facelift headlights. I did have a look through the owner's manual and searching through I couldnt find anything about the lever. Tomorrow I will take one off. Annoyingly I dont have the 6 point e 10 socket.

    The only way I suppose to know for sure is take out the headlamp tomorrow and look for this lever.

    Could I convert RHD headlamp to LHD rather than purchasing two new lamps? Is there a cheaper headlight that will fit and work with D2 other than the OEM model for the year? They are so expensive !

    the guy said he can stamp it Yeh. Not over where the old VIN was but above is fine. And with the invoice it wont fail the French contrĂ´le technique because of that. Tempted to drive the 1000km back to England and sell it đŸ¤£
