Hi Chris
If he is living in France full time then he should get the car registered and insured accordingly as his insurance will be invalid if there is an accident. A bit of sticky tape will not get him through the CT. As an import he will have to prove ownership have a Certificate of Conformity and legal insurance. All this should be done within a month of import otherwise he will be on the road illegally. I bought my headlights via German Ebay. I find car spares very cheap there much cheaper than UK or France. Hope thats clear
