I think the whole thing is just stupid. Sure, I understand lhd lights, but I have not had an issue with either my GC8 or r32 with factory lights, I have never been flashed once. I had a friend drive my car towards me on the highway in my car, I was in his, it did not blind me at all, I have more of an issue with any truck or big car. Slapping in some honda accord lights is a lot more dangerous because the aim is all messed up, can't see anything. The headlights are not made for the car at all, no matter how you mount them they will always be shitty.
And don't get me started on tail lights, if it reflects light, and lights up, is that not good enough? A magical DOT stamp isn't going to change anything. The Japanese are way more strict than us with vehicles (general population seems to be smarter too, not a bunch of knuckle dragging mouth breathers), I think they know how to make a tail light light up and reflect. Look at the vehicles on our roads compared to theirs, all I see are rusted out pieces of **** with exhausts dragging on the ground, missing a headlight with blown struts swaying all over the road. RHD's should be the least of your worry, at least they are good shape. I think it's time to give them some credit lol.
Side markers are a joke too... But whatever.
EDIT: And don't forget about all the shitty drivers! Get rid of those if you want to do something productive
