WANTED Looking for E500 hella headlight lenses

Just confirming - you want different lenses than what is on the car now, correct? Your photo shows LHT (left-hand-traffic), Japan/UK lenses.
You also need to check what headlamps/reflectors are installed. You can't mix RHT lenses with LHT reflectors, or vice-versa...

Yes mr gsxr, thats correct, i converted my car to facelift version bcoz its originally 1992 500E, i replaced the headlight lenses from a used LHT UK car, but when i drive my car in highway at night, i dont feel that the lightining is correct, i tried to adjust the lights using the bosch adjustment tool but the body shop expert said that adjusting the lights will not change anything, i should change the headlight lens to improve the lightining, the headlight housing is the original hella RHT lights bcoz i just changed the lenses.Just confirming - you want different lenses than what is on the car now, correct?

I will add 3 photos, the first photo for 3 hella lenses, the question is, are those lenses for LHT or RHT?
The other 2 photos for a set of chrome lenses stamped with the letter (m) on the back, did u ever see this brand? Is it marelli?
Thanks in advance

All 3 Hella lenses in that photo are LHT (UK/Japan).
The 2 lenses in the other photo are RHT (USA/Germany). I don't know the brand, but they are not E500E lenses and appear to be aftermarket. Hella and Bosch lenses have markings on the glass, I don't see anything on the glass for these two.
