Correct, the original headlamps remain in place and you have bolt/rivet two new mounts for the inner lamps.

Easiest option is just buy a pair of new square outers in RHD, bolt in in 2 minutes and you`ve got right-hand drive. They are cheaper from VW than JK by the way (I found that out after I`d bought a pair from JK :( ) Did`t find the need to swap the square inners, they don`t seem to have a direction other than straight ahead, so LHD / RHD doesn`t seem to make a difference to where they shine. Mine passed the MOT no probs with `em.
Keep it real.

I've got my knickers in a twist trying to understand which part number I should be asking for:-

Is this correct?

256941105 = UK spec LH headlamp for RHD, driving on LHS of the road.
256941106 = UK spec RH headlamp for RHD, driving on LHS of the road.

and

255941105 = Continental spec LH headlamp for LHD, driving on RHS of the road.
255941106 = Continental spec RH headlamp for LHD, driving on RHS of the road.

cheers, Patrick.
