So even though the headlights are specifically made for RHD (it says so on the label on top of the light unit) Volvo think they are OK when driving on the right.
I have to disagree, if that is what they intended, the dipped beam should have a straight horizontal cut off. I have a friend with a BMW X3 with LED lights, his dipped beam is a straight horizontal line. My lights will certainly dazzle oncoming drivers If I am driving on the right.
As I suspected all along, I will have to resort to blanking part of the beam with sticky tape, as I have done with every other car I have owned.

Why not just give it a try. If the highest point is below the legal requirement why are you worried that it is not straight.
