What is the simplest/best headlamps (low beam) modification for Toyota Sienna gen-2 to meet the EU regulations?

Hi, everyone and welcome from Poland!

I have a Toyota Sienna gen-2 from 2009 (Canadian version).
The headlamps don't have a clear cut-off line above the horizontal line, which needs to be changed before the registration.
I know some other owners were installing some headlight lenses, but at the same time, I can see other vehicles already registered without any obvious modifications.

I know (I checked that) the standard/my gen-2 Toyota Sienna headlamp (low beam) has a symmetric mirror and provides the same amount of light above and below the horizontal line. Is there a chance to swap the original bulb (9006 - B2) for another one with the covered below part to cut unwanted light? My idea is to try to get this:

Questions:
  1. Is anyone with this solution? What bulbs are you using? Do you have some additional adapters, etc.?
  2. What other bulbs have the same collar, like 9006 - B2?
  3. Is there some other (better) solution to solve my problem and meet the EU regulations?
P.S. Sienna is amazing! The best car I have ever driven :)

Hi.
You mean your lights are symmetrical while in EU should be asymmetrical?
Do you want achieve this light distribution pattern?

You need to insert H7 projector lens. It's the easiest way. However even that your lights have no EU homologation.
My Sienna is since 2007 in Poland and my lights are symmetrical and I pass every-year inspection.

Anyway your Sienna should have a clear cut-off line above the horizontal line.
