Is there a H7 version ?
I was under the impression modern lights don't need the headlight adapter films

I know the LEDs don't because there is a setting in the DIS to swap them. Does the H7 have this, otherwise I guess a film is needed.
I'm guessing not as there is LHD set of H7's on ebay recently....
RHD H4's and H7's both have the beam pattern that kicks up to the left, so need converters. You can't adjust reflector lights like you can LED or xenon projectors. I'm pretty sure that LHD lights have a flat dipped beam pattern, so don't need converters to drive over here.
We're going to France this year. If we take the van, I'll need to work out what to do about my THQ headlights. Probably shine the lights onto the garage door and trial and error with insulation tape. Or take the Tig with its IQ LEDs.

That's for LED lights. If you think about it, you can't change the beam pattern from a reflector, which is why you need to block some of it out with a sticker.
Interesting !
It’s a funny one - a bit like carrying spare bulbs. You must carry spare bulbs, but they don’t need to fit nor do you need to be capable of fitting them. So, with the Xenon’s on SWMBO’s car or the LED’s on my van, I carry a bulb kit from Poundland! But, I don’t drive much at night in France as I’m busy drinking!
Does your 6.1 have this function? I can’t find it on my 6.1 but definitely used it on the T6. I thought it had been omitted from the 6.1.
No, the OP has a T6.
IIRC the T6.1 LEDs have a flat beam pattern, so they do not require adjusting or stickers for travel to Europe.
Just shove some stickers on to keep “Les flic” happy!
Also works! Saves all that wd40 getting the glue off when you get home!!!Or better yet just shove them in the glove box and wait til you’re stopped to say oh pardon I do have them but completely forgot… they’ll be in there for years
Here you go Genuine VW T6 Headlight Protectors (Pair) – CampervanBits
If you look closely at the pictures, you'll see some black dots that indicate where the stickers need to be fitted.
