    That is correct.

    The reflectors in the standard US lights are terrible with a shocking light pattern. The Euro-spec lights sold by ECS are basically the european style of reflector (it produces a better light pattern.

    They're both LHD specific.

    which are the best? if US has wider beam (less 'cut off'), wouldn't that be best for rural roads here?

    Thanks Manaz!
    Otherwise, an option I'm considering again:
    what about the option below? Just keep my RHD lights, smash the rest of the glass, Joey Mod them, then just add the new glass.. ? Do FK do glass?

    FK don't do glass.

    You should get a good couple of years out of new plastic though. And at that stage, you can find some good glass lenses and replace them at your leisure.
