Mike,

The UK did receive rectangular headlight models as well with headlights
dipping the other direction. However, a majority of the ones which have the
rectangular headlights there now are imported from the continent (of Europe)
and usually LHD. Best thing is to ask the Seller. How do I know this? I have
a nice set of RHD rectangular headlights as proof.

On another note, all highbeams are "square". Technically, the lowbeams are
rectangular.

Cheers,

Ben
