Replica Headlights Regulations Concern

In my country, all imported headlights must include the EC/ECE standard marking (usually marked as 'E' stamp on the headlights) to have compliance with the regulations or else they will get stopped by Customs.

Any Europeans who ordered replica headlights (that usually don't include this marking) and had any issues with this?

If you need something with some type of certification the Osram LED headlights are probably your best, if not only, option. They have ECE certification, listed in the details on their product page...

They seem to be the only ones who have this marking, however, I actually like the MK7.5 R look with the U shape.

Not sure if any of the reps will have certification markings, as they are replicas. Also I don't know if you mentioned if your car is Mk7 or Mk7.5 but the Osram lights are for the Mk7.
