Do any UK drivers know what needs to be done to the headlights to comply with right hand driving. Normally stickers are put on the head lights to stop blinding other drivers but the AA head light pack I have has no information about what to do with Grenadier head lights. Any advice from any UK drivers who have driven on the continent in the past ?

You have to cover the upper lens. It is responsible for the asymmetric part of the light.

I thought there was a page in the owner’s manual on what to do in respect of blanking lights for RHD roads

Correct, it's in the owner's manual.
