Alberta OOP regulations were updated in December, they are MUCH more strict now, however the good news is a pass is still relatively easy for an L400.

You will need new headlights, you will need side reflectors, you will need daytime running lights, and you will need to change the white front corner bulbs to amber. beyond that it's a matter of mechanical fitness, no different from any other vehicle (brakes, steering, tires, etc need to be in good order)

Thanks Green1 !
I found already a good place to get new [after market] headlights[not only]-from Europe ;left and right with shipment almost 450.00 CD-if any one is interested : www.koca-groupe.de , it is in german language [ I can help with translations — parts for 1997 and younger , but I think there should not be a big difference for 1994 ]
Best Regardes Jerry !

97 and younger headlights will not fit.

97 and younger headlights are different from 94-96 headlights
