dogo thats the section 5.5 of the appendix. the coppa might have been on about the actual paragraph 5.5 in the main part of the same document
Vehicle Standard (Australian Design Rule 13/00 - Installation of Lighting and Light Signalling Devices on other than L-Group Vehicles) 2005
paragraph 5 EXEMPTIONS AND ALTERNATIVE PROCEDURES
paragraph 5.5 (pg5) reads
For front position lamps, manufacturers may choose not to meet the
requirements of paragraph 6.9.1 of Appendix A, in which case they must
meet the requirements in clause 8.4 of this standard.
Appendix A refers to several UNECE regulations for lighting
components. Read references to these UNECE regulations as references
to ADRs as set out in the table below. Where there is no referenced
ADR in the table for lighting or marking components, the UNECE
regulation referenced in Appendix A shall apply

and paragraph 6.9 of appendix A is found on pg71 of the same document which i wont be reproducing here, its several pages but here is the link
i think he is trying to get at it being to low.. as thats the only thing i can see from the whole paragraph (minimum height being 350mm but thats just damn sad.. i say take it to the cop shop and get them to explain it..

id try to go after paragraph 7.3 DRIVING LAMPS as thats what these are and they are fine under all paragraphs 7.3..
