Headlights from Dubai: how to check compatibility and completeness
Читать оригинал на русскомAutomatically translated from the Russian article.
Checklist for ordering automotive optics from the UAE: side, article, lighting technology, blocks, mounts, condition and packaging.
Identify the right side
Specify the left or right headlamp in the direction of movement of the car, VIN and the number of the old part. If the optics consist of upper and lower elements, list them separately. A photo of the entire front end helps to understand what element is needed, but does not replace the readable marking.
Check the light type and regional version
Write down the technology of installed optics and the presence of adaptive functions. Inform the car market and the country of operation. The connectors and shape of the housing may look the same when different functions. Compliance of light distribution and operating requirements should be confirmed with the profile service prior to purchase.
What's included
Check whether control units, lamps or lighting modules, covers, seals and mounts are included. Ask for photos of the back and markings of each unit included. If you plan to rearrange elements from an old headlight, check their compatibility and condition together with the installer.
How to inspect a used headlight
Check for cracks, chips, turbidity, fastening ears and autopsy marks. Ask for photos of the body seam and available inclusion video with part identification. Cosmetic examination does not confirm the tightness or operation of all adaptive functions. Find out what checks are actually carried out and what more are needed.
Packaging and receipt
Coordinate the protection of glass, corners and protruding mounts, fixation inside the box and photos of the package. When receiving, first remove the condition of the box and label, then the headlight itself. Do not throw away the package before checking. The procedure for handling damage depends on the agreed terms of delivery and transportation.
Request to B&G PARTS
Send VIN, side, article, photos and delivery city. Check if you need a new or removed headlight from the car and whether blocks are required. Availability, composition of the kit, packaging and current transportation, agree on WhatsApp. Compare offers for the total cost of the same complete position.

Frequently asked questions
Can I pick up only from a photo of the front?
The photo helps to identify the item, but VIN, marking and configuration are needed to confirm.
Will the same headlights work the same way?
Not necessarily: Blocks, functions and regional specifications may differ. Verify the numbers and installation conditions.
