206cc headlight adjustment RHD to LHD?

Question

I notice that on the 206cc the headlight lenses are clear and have no scoring which you can cover with black tape to block the dipped beam going too high up on the left for driving abroad. I understand the French police sometimes blockade and fine drivers if the headlights aren't blocked, no GB sticker, no spare bulbs, that sort of thing.

I'll probably line it up against a wall in the dark and make sure it blocks out the high level dipped light, but is there an elegant solution, it is a French design, after all ;)

Cheers, Dave

If it's anything like the 407 and 307, then you have to buy the headlight protectors from Peugeot, these are marked to indicate where to apply the black 'sticker' that is included. The purchase price includes fitting from the Peugeot dealer.My 407 protectors just clip on, but the 307 are a pig to fit, no idea about the 206 though. Don't forget your warning triangle either.
