I will shortly be registering my UK-spec 2018 Sprinter-based motorhome abroad - mainland Europe - and will therefore first have to put the vehicle through a local MOT for compliance and approval.

I would assume that the headlights, which are fitted to comply with UK left side of the road driving regulations, will need to be swapped to cater for driving on the opposite side of the road.

Can anyone advise whether swapping the headlight units over to continental requirement is possible?

Thanks.

I assume you are not able to switch the headlights from left hand to right hand drive?
In which case you will need to to replace the headlights to right hand drive ones. I would have thought considering the number of Sprinters about, obtaining a pair would not be a big issue in the EU?
