The LHD glass beam pattern is nearly identical to the US (when new and not yellowed), the main benefit is individually adjustable beams. The US reflector is one piece, the Euro is two piece allowing for separate aiming of low and high beams. That was the most noticeable improvement for me. The next enhancement is implementing the UK electric aiming switch, mine's finished but I haven't driven the car yet to play with it. This allows you to set the low beams a little below optimal (good for HID use, since it cuts off higher) and then raise it from inside for darker roads. That leaves the highbeams set where they need to be and doesn't screw up the aiming like the US lights do.

So the German (Euro) headlights that Courtesy sells are just LHD glass versions of the ones we have here in the US? Eventhough they are glass, they get that yellow tint too?
I was under the impression that having the glass housings would somehow improve the output and beam pattern. Also eliminating that yellowish tint.
