If it's about the beam pattern being handed wrong for UK roads then as a 'temporary' fix you could mask the headlamps:

Our Westy still has LHD headlamps with something similar to this in place and we've never had a problem with the MOT.

Sounds like you have the near useless US spec lamps or aftermarket project zero's?

US spec lamps .....useless and no pattern.
Not Euro spec that just need a beam bender sticker to comply.

WHS ^
We too have a LHD Westy and have passed its MOT no problem. Our lights are a bit dim though. Will change bulbs for the next MOT (due very soon)
