Can you cut them to fit? There should be a pattern on your headlamp cover maybe

It is Opel Corsa 2014 and I was sent eurolights, for rhd, not sure what the difference is, but all looks vague and a little complicated with diagram,so will try a local garage.Thanks for replying

you can use black tape but you'll have to put it on before you leave spain if your ferry docks at night.  we have never been stopped with lhd car going back to uk over the last 16 years.  on the ferry they have the rhd deflectors  but never seen lhd. how about turning them upside down. also a tip to remove the sticky left use duro glit.  we hised it on our rhd car when we had it

Hi, 

You could try taking the deflectors you have bought on ebay to Juan on the poligano in Lubrín and he'll sort it out for you.
