Generally there was 4 options when travelling from the UK over the Channel
1) stick some shields over the relevant parts of the headlamp lens so that the part of the beam pointing to the left were cut off (a pain in the arse, as even a few hours use of the headlamps gave enough heat to bake the damned things on, and make them difficult to scrape off)
2) some newer vehicles had the switch to cut out part of the beam internally
3) use the electric height adjustment to just point them downwards
4) do nothing and have everyone flash at you, and have the gendarmes hunt you down

Or just travel in daylight only
