Need help with my headlights
Hello all and greetings from germany.
I need help.
Today i was at the every 2 years car check called TÜV. With my G8 is all OK, but today the guy who checked my car, - and he did the last 3 times, make me problems." My headlights donīt have a (E), or CE Sign in the glass and when switch on, - i dont know , how to say, if you park in front of a wall, then you have a cutline from the headlights and this makes a triangle up to the right sights. Each headlight. Mine have this to the left side. I had never problems with this. Now this guy give me time 4 weeks. If i dont change the headlights with other with CE, or E number and the wedge to the right side, it is not allowed for me to drive.
Now: can anybody look , how it is at your car? Have your headligts anywhere the CE / or E sign and ist the light wedge up to the right side? Have i headlights from australia with right left side traffic?
But my car was anytime registered in germany , gets paper and had never problems. Only with this guy.
I hope, i get an answer.
Thank you.

Can you take it to another inspection station in a different location to avoid this guy or take back in when he is not working? It's been a few years since I had my G8 and don't remember if it had CE/ or E on the headlights anywhere. Seems like a really strange requirement and like you should be grandfathered in since they didn't have any issue with it the last 3 times.

Now i have found a pair at ebay from taiwan. Comes with E Sign. I showed the fotos of them to this guy and he accept it. Iīve ordered and i must say , this seller at ebay, calles crazythegod , writes me every day, if i get now, or not. But damned, the lamps need only 4 days to come to germany, but now the are at the Zoll border control and i dont know how long this needs now. I hope, all fits , when i get.

Hi all.
I wanted to give a feedback from my headlights. It was horrible. The lamps from Taiwan came very fast. Iīve got a message from Fedex , delivery date is within 4 days. Email and address correct? I wrote yes, but the next day iīve got a mail, the lamps are at the Zoll Office for check. I waited 3 weeks. There came no mail, or anything. Then, one day a mail from Taiwan why they sent back? I didīnt know why and no one contact me. I asked the dealer to send back please, but he didīnt like it. So i had the same problem. After a while , i found 8 dealers in america with headlamps with E sign. Next problem: they dont send to germany. Thanks god, only one did it and iīve got them after nearly 4 months. But now all is good. .......thanks god.
