code under seat is 5LV1 100
If your tester was already provably wrong about the number of headlights you should have, and you have MOT certs for your bike from the past, you might be able to just bully him into passing you again. It would save you the cost and hassle of a whole new headlight assembly for what is no longer a young bike.

Not a big job just awkward.The 600 foxeye headlights ones are exactly the same ( same part number), look for the headlights from either the FZS600 2002-2003 foxeye or 2001 to 2005 FZS1000 ones

I will try what you suggest
Is is a damaged unit you got? If it is intact you can just swap them If it is you will need a heat gun to soften the glue. It should be hot enough for you to just about be able to hold. The two glass front are separate parts, do one at the time.Some put in the oven to heat it but the heat gun is just as good.
Just different makers, Japanese one is probably OEM and the Phillips was a replacement.Setting the beams will be some fun. Were you charged much for the headlight? Either way it is a cheaper fix than a new headlight, especially when you can do the job yourself and have a damaged one to practice on
