One of the most common hurdles when importing a UK vehicle to Spain is the need to adjust or replace the headlights to meet Spanish driving standards. In the UK, vehicles are designed for left-hand traffic, meaning the headlamps are aligned for driving on the left side of the road. This can cause your headlights to dazzle oncoming drivers in Spain, which is not only unsafe but also guaranteed to cause your vehicle to fail the ITV (Inspección Técnica de Vehículos).
At AM CAR IMPORTS, we offer a complete headlamp realignment service to ensure your vehicle meets Spanish road safety standards and passes the ITV inspection. We inspect your headlamps and provide the necessary solution to make sure they comply with local regulations.
In many cases, a simple realignment or modification is enough to adjust the beam pattern for right-hand driving. However, in some cases, especially with newer cars, a full headlamp conversion or replacement may be required. Either way, our team will ensure that your headlamps are adjusted to avoid dazzling other drivers, so your vehicle passes the ITV test without issues.
We work with certified technicians who use approved methods and parts, guaranteeing that the work is completed to the highest safety and quality standards. After the realignment or modification is done, we’ll test the alignment to ensure the beam pattern is correct. If needed, we’ll also assist in taking your vehicle to the ITV station for testing.
This service is ideal for:
UK-imported vehicles needing headlamp modifications for Spain
Classic cars with non-EU headlamps
Vehicles with faulty or non-compliant headlights
Our goal is to make the headlamp realignment process as simple and affordable as possible. At [Your Company Name], we ensure that your car is fully compliant with Spanish driving standards, and we make sure your ITV inspection goes smoothly.
