Some of the inspection BS you guys have to go through just kills me...
Some new cars now use plain, clear headlight lenses & this is why i speculated about the H4 bulb being the device that controlls the way the beam moves when dipped.
I know that the inspections are a source of amusement in the US, but i have seen some of the dangerous modifications made by unknowing, & untallented car modifiers over here & i have seen pictures of the same thing in the US. I'm damn glad that we have these inspections as i have some small measure of confidence that most of the cars on our roads actually perform as they should.
I don't know that i could be equally confident about car safety if i were in the US as some of the stuff that has been described on this site is horrific from a structural & safety standpoint.
These standards exist for the safety & well being of all of us & for that reason i would rather ride in an Australian compliant modified car than a non compliant one,... from anywhere. I know that some of the modified cars that i have seen pictures of street legal cars from the US that would have inspectors here in fits of laughter. "You want to register THAT?"
