Going probably to france and germany when driving out there can my e60 halogen lights be switched from right hand drive to lefthand drive i did this on my previous bmw which was. A E30 3 series by undoing a screw or 2 and turning the headlight setting from RH to LH

Can the same be done to the e60 headlights?

I think there is a round tab at the top of each headlight. Under the tab you can push the lever to change.
