Dacia, Ford, Suzuki, KIA, BMW and Mercedes have these as standard fitments on some of their higher end cars.
The new rulings (May 2018) apply to after market or retro fitted lights which as far as I've read aren't fitted with working self leveling systems, that's for lights with outputs of over 2,000 lumens but who is going to know what it is. Some say there should also be washers fitted as well but that isn't what the regs actually say, it seems to be one or the other.
The problem is that:
EU Law says one thing
VOSA require a different thing
MOT testers interpret that individually
