So long as you are modifying a pre-April-1986 car.

No I don’t get that either. :?

Interesting, doesn't look like they give a rats ass about self levelling systems, either.

Which is nice as it's not like they make any difference from what I've seen on modern cars with HID/LEDs....

The self levelling thing has never ever been an issue, it’s and if it’s fitted it should work thing. Plenty of cars got hids from the factory without levelling or washers.

I don’t think it’s much of an issue anyway, fit them sensibly and correctly aimed and you won’t have any bother in my experience.
