As above - does anyone know if the W124 lights (mine is a '91 230TE) are adjustable for driving on the right, or do I need to get some stickers to go on the lenses?

(I'm off to Holland for a long weekend with the family).

You will need stickers. Unless your car has been upgraded with xenons, some of which are switchable.

I have to admit that, even though I took the deflectors with me, I have never bothered to put them on my lights. But I then have never driven at night on the continent. I go to France with the car about 4 or 5 times a year and never had any problem.

Tut! Tut! Tut! - SURELY you must have gone through some tunnels, where lights ON are mandatory :shock:

I generally go to my friends near Paris and use public transport or their car from there. No tunnels on the way.
