They’re reviewing the transitional handling? By the National Agency for Automotive Safety & Victim’s Aid<\/a>

Huh? (‘\u0414’)
Transitional? What was that again?
Reading it more carefully…
Oh, headlights.

I mean
this is pretty serious stuff…

Even with LO measurement failing before
we managed to barely pass with HI

My inspection is in June
so I’m safe next time, but after that…
I think a lot of people are going to have real trouble if they don’t know about this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check your vehicle registration certificate
and verify<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Target Vehicles
Vehicles manufactured on or after September 1, 1998<\/strong>
(Excluding motorcycles, motorcycles with sidecars, large special vehicles, and trailers)
Heisei 10 = 1998
*Motorcycles are fine.

You can roughly figure out which category by looking at the initial registration date.

Unfortunately, my Town Ace
is subject to this.
(Moving to LO beam measurement)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you polish the headlights
what if they still don’t pass?

LED bulbs usually won’t work anyway
*My truck
Direct battery relay – what will happen…

If you can get a new lens
but what if it’s discontinued?

This is a very serious problem.
Just because of one headlight
if things go wrong
you might have to replace your vehicle?
It’s possible.

In extreme cases
for someone like me in this line of work
it’s possible to manage

but
what about regular people?

For example
bringing it in right at the inspection deadline
and failing inspection because of this headlight issue
left at a loss with an expired inspection
no options and no parts
it’s tough.


Before August of next year, Reiwa 6
you should get your headlights measured
and take countermeasures.

We’re being pushed into a corner more and more…
