Default Single headlight beam mod for RHS riding.

Posted this first on tuning and tweaking but got no replies.

Has anyone got a diagram of the headlamp mask for a single headlamp(K1) so that I wont dazzle oncoming traffic in Europe? When I did some night driving in France last year without one, I got some very angry reactions.

Thanks
John

Any ideas? I'm looking to do the same to a curvey.

K1 = curvy.

Tried beam benders that stick on your headlights and turn the beam to the right? Worked well on my car.

Didn't have this issue with the Viffer, oddly.

BUMP. I'm off to france next week, had a look at the jobbies you get in halfords and apart from being bloody expensive they are massive and cover a lot of the headlights. I bet it can be done easy enough with a bit of gaffer tape, anyone know where to stick it? I've got an S and my mates is an N, both '99.
