0:01 Remove the caps from the rear
0:05 Heat the headlight to soften the sealing
0:11 We put the headlight in a carton box and heat it
0:15 1600 Watt heatgun for 16 minutes
0:23 Remove the lens clips and rubber
0:44 Seperate the lens from the housing using a flat screw driver
1:14 Remove the H7 halogen bulb cap
1:20 break off the cap channel with a plier
1:28 Place the small rubber washer over the projector shaft
1:33 Insert the Bi-xenon solenoid wires through the cap shaft and insert the projector through the fitting
1:43 Place the H7 adapter ring and secure the projector nut
1:59 Don't tighten it fully yet, you might want to do some final rotational adjustment when the headlights are mounted on the car
2:04 Mount the bulb holder
2:20 Click the shroud centric ring inside the shroud (this shroud has been modified for fitment)
2:23 Apply a few drops of glue to be sure the shroud will stay on
2:50 Remove all finger prints using a fine cloth
3:00 If you want, apply some butyl to make sure the headlight will be free of moisture
3:20 Press the lens on the housing and bake it again
3:48 Now that the sealant is soft, press the lens on the housing using pliers and secure the lens by placing the metal clips
4:17 Place the solenoid plug back on the wires
4:25 Connect the H7 high beam splitter for the solenoid to function together with the H7 halogen high beam
4:49 Drill a 20-22mm hole in the bulb cap to guide the wires through
5:16 The wires will be connected to the ballast and H7 low beam plug. Because the Audi A4 B7 has Canbus, this is the only wiring setup that can be used
5:22 Insert the bulb in the projector and secure it with the clip
5:48 Connect the 12V ballast wires correctly, red to the yellow cable (+ positive) and black to brown (- negative)
6:07 Click the cap back on, you are ready to mount the headlight to the car and enjoy a luxurious Bi-xenon projector headlight! :-)

Retrofitting refers to the addition of new technology or features to older systems. These days there are a lot of people who put a simple plug & play xenon kit in their halogen headlight housing in an attempt to improve night vision and looks of their vehicle. In fact they don’t realize that their headlight beams are often worse than before. Night vision achieves relatively little improvement on night vision because of a poor beam pattern, which increases the blinding of other road users. This is because their headlight housings are designed for halogen and not xenon.
A true Bi-Xenon projector update is now possible for your car. Such an upgrade will significantly improve your light output from 700-2100 lumens to 2800 and 3500 lumens, without blinding other traffic with glare from your headlight. Upgrade your headlight OEM style!
The latest high power Led bulbs will upgrade both the exterior and interior lighting system of your car. Led lighting is becoming more and more popular in the automotive market for obvious reasons. They have longer lifetime, use less energy and improve safety with their fast response time.
Do you have any questions? Do not hesitate to contact us, we are happy to help you out!
Good luck with your retrofit!
These products are not ECE-approved and must not be used on public roads in any exterior application. Use on public roads will invalidate both the operating license and insurance coverage. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
this is very satisfying to watch
Thanks :)
Thank you ! :) Have a wonderful day !
Love the heat gun box hack.
one of the most perfect videos i've seen.thank you!!!!
Thank you for making this video because I just saw what I need to do to my new projector lamps. The left one is not rotated level with the right one so I need to take the bulb out and look inside to see how off it is. Going crazy try to found out how I can do it.
Amazing idea and may have to try this with my golf gti mk5 lights. Well done retrofit you sure know your stuff 👍
Thanks a million on this video. Great, straight to the point, and no extra bs.
meow.
Great job! Congratulations.
Excellent work trully impressed!
Nice job! Looks OEM with the shroud you chose.
Nice and clean retrofit. Those shrouds look so OEM
you make this look easy... i try on my car.. thanks for the video
Wow you make it look really simple. .looks SICK
By the way excellent work, you make it look easy!!!
No problem man...keep up the great work.
Hmm will try that next..thanks alot :)
Hello super job. Do you know if u can do them on an audi b8
would this work smoothly on a altima 2010 sedan
This is the most brilliant heating method I've ever seen!
I never had the chance to remove my headlight cover because my microwave oven is too small haha.
Btw. can you also use a hair dryer to heat it up? Is it sufficient enough?
Great job! You make it look so simple...
Can you give an advice how to open Jetta 2012 headlights? As i understand you cannot 'bake' them, as the sealant used from factory is very strong. Some people cut them...but i dont want to use that method. Thanks!
Awesome job! My headlight are burnt from the factory fit HIDs on the inside of the lenses, I might join St attempt to try this as new headlights are over £360 + vat each Wah!
This vid was exactly what I was looking for. Although some things happened so fast I barely knew what you were doing, but still, thanks.
REally? Didn't know that, I'll check. thanks-
Hi, I was wondering if I could use the same approach for my 2013 Hyundai Elantra headlights
Thanks for answering me Retrofitlab
So up till now i understood that the solenoid or the black and red wires are responsible for making the light switch from low to high beam mode.
So it means that when I will have these lenses installed on my car's headlight I would only have to connect the solenoid to the lens in order to make it high and low beam lens
superb... clean installation....
Thanks Bud!!!
Great video, Great job !!
Brilliant many thanks Sir 😊👍
Was about to purchase a set for my gti but sadly or luckily someone just sold me a pair of bi xenon lights for £100 but thank you all the same for taking the time to reply 😊
+Retrofitlab Thanks again 😊
Awesome mod for a regular headlight, i would like to do it on my 2002 camry le, but i dont know if it is possible...?
Шикарно! 🍓
How do you adjust the horizontal alignment of the beam..I've been retrofitting for years but can't find another way than putting the headlight on the car and adjusting against a wall before putting lens back on..any tips?? Thanks
You made it look so easy 👊💪🤣
hey wts up man u do a great job on this nice vid!!! i want to retrofit my del sol any help?
U r doing a great job. It's not easy at all to be done at home.
good job,i need to now about bulbs,which is the best color temperature 4300k 5000k 6000k.
Do you know how to open the Headlights for a 2012 VW Scirocco?
Are they similar to open like the Golf V Headlights?
can you modify the headlight of kia picanto 2016? please! :)
Me gusta tu video haces un exelente trabajo bien ilustrado y sin hablar...te felicito Dios te bendiga.
¡Muchas gracias!
It's like adding Terminator eyes
Amazing!
On which temperature is the heat gun set?
Hello,have a tutorial that explain how we can take the audi a4 ( b8/8k ) led into a Audi A3 headlights?thank you so much
Hello, how much temperature you put at the phon? thanks
hello, thanks for the reply. no, I know ... it's just to see how you disassemble your channel. But I would like to know if you know where they sell them
very very good job!!!!
Retrofitlab I definitely will be using this technique to do my retrofit this way
+Retrofitlab headlight washer not required?
Hello,
This is a good tutorial and I'm grateful but there's something I'm confused about. At the end, you take the connector to the original filament bulb (is that a H7 connector?) and you patch it into the HID's. I assume the point of this is to avoid having numerous wires coming out the back of your headlight.
How do you work that out? My headlight is very similar to this (it's a VW) so it would be a massive help if you could explain how you worked this out. Otherwise I have loads of wires coming out the back, the wiring harness going in, plus the bulbs :(
If I could avoid having the wiring harness going in so all I have to plug in is the bulbs, that would be amazing. Thanks.
With what are you sealing the headlight on the end? Thanks
Awesome job! Does the heating part for taking off the lens works also on A6 C6 headlight. I have heard that there is some different sealent used and its not going to melt?
great job.
what temperature you're using to ,,BAKE"?
Thanks
Nyc n clean work done !
it looks awesome
may I ask what that roll of sealer/tape it was u used to seal the lens back on to the housing... this method is very interesting and may have to attempt this
4:57 This lamp is what brand? Thank you!
Hello there. Can we turn on the valeo brand headlights by heating this way?
can you make some for a altima 06 plz
Very Cool !!!
Hi, which shrouds do you use here? A4 B7
How is the shroud named in your Online-Shop?
Hello, friend!
It is normal this projector shake when the vehicle is moving even in places plans?
I'm using rubbers and are properly tight, eatou xomeçando to suspect that the vibration comes from the lighthouse baffle, already took a case like this? Type it vibrates a little tried to shoot and the cell captures not.
+Retrofitlab Really the problem is the lighthouse, confirmed yesterday. Thanks for attention. People here always ask where the best place to buy projectors always indicate your website.
will these work for a 2000 audi a6 c5?
Hi .. your video is very interesting! The method you use to unstick the glass is very ingenious, congratulations! A question I wanted to ask you: where can I find only glass? Thank you, bye.
Hi
do you have à vidéo with an audi a3 8p (2004-2008) ?
what shroud do you chose?
Very good video!! But what about CanBus? Appears Bulb Error?
for a6 c5 year 2000, i have headlights whit projectors OEM, and i want to change just projectors, what projectors I need to change only ? 2.5 or 3 inch ?
Is it the same with Golf IV headlights? Is it possible to install the new projectors without cutting or grinding the oem reflectors? Maybe you could post a video on how to work that out on a Golf IV? Thanks!
I want to know do u have to sand down the housing? Is the thread shaft in the back of the projector long enough for both the nut, metal washer and the hid bulb holder? I have a Audi a4 b7 halogen reflector housing
I wish you guys could do that to my 07 Ford Focus. But I'm in Florida. :( ....I'd pay you $250 for both projectors install and installing an 8000K HID bulb behind it.
Do you have a video of how you guys made that box where you heat the headlights in? My in laws won't allow me to bake my headlights in their oven.
its just a box with a hole big enough to put the heatgun through...
What LED is that in the hi-beam corner?
Awesome, thanks
H1 Philips Diamond vision ?
HI there guys have you done any Nissan altima 2007-2009 sedan looks like there no much room to fit the shrouds
good video....
what type of seals used the
so a normal blow drier will be enough to heat up the lights to break the seal?
Auto levelling??
could you do a 2013 Volkswagen passat?
Any tips for beginners?
Hi
Great job man :)
I have a bmw e60,could you recommend me some good retrofits?many thanks
+Retrofitlab thanks for your reply :)
Yes It's pre lci model.i heard that they're very hard to open :(
What do u think of cut open?But i'v got no idea how to and what to use to seal them back after cut open?any ideas?
There is a video on youtube of guy cutting them open.
What do you think of doing it this way?
Hi , urgent ! i need a video tutorial that shows retrofitting a projector in place of a projector
What model of this projector that works in the low beam that seems to be the same as the Tiguan
And what is the 2nd wire that connects in parallel with high beam?
And also the 2 wire on the projector installed
Can I ask what the two wires are coming from the lens?. thanks
another question I wanted to ask you ... what is the name of the adhesive glass rejection rubber? thank you
Really Nice man ,what kind of sealer do you use? Were i can buy it?
how long and what temperature you hold that box?
Hello there. I like your videos. I have an Audi A4 B7 2007 with stock bi Xenon headlights, but my right Hi Beam won't engage. Soon as I turn my HI Beams on right light starts switching between HI and Low beam. Is there any magnetic motor that holds HI beam ON, and is there any way to fix this problem? Thank you!
what is the stuff u apply to the projector before put the shrouds on?where can i get it from?
Ah. So If I understand correctly : the way you hook it up there results in low beam over Xenon, but you make a pass-through with the Hi-beam original light in order to not only activate the Hi-Beam solenoid switch in the Xenon : that way, when you Switch on Hi-beam, both the original Hi-beam Reflector Hallogen lights up AND the Xenon retrofit goes into Hi-Beam position. The result is in Hi-beam, you're really throwing 2 Bulbs (one Xenon, one original Hallogen) into Hi-beam ?
жду ретрофита от автора на mercedes w211 2003 года галоген ! посмотрим что получится если конечно выйдет ролик
for bmw f20 can i use this kit also ?? 1 series halogen lamp 2014..it has not so much space inside the headlamp , i would like 2.5" with angel eyes also
Can you share a video regarding the F20 , retrofiting , is a popular model in all big citys from europe (i think is the 3 rd in sell numbers for bmw after 3 and 5 series) .And would be the only video on youtube , i didn t found any F20 retrofit also no aftermarket headligst still not available :(. Thanks a lot !!!
hello. i have a Audi A4 B7. Have you a complete Set for this?
What type shrounds do you used on these headlights?
do you have for seat ibiza cupra 2010??
What type of adhesive do we put the lense back on with ?
Love your videos and your projects!
But can you please point me to where I can replace my OEM headlights from my 06/Audi/s4 without worry about the stupid adaptive light feature? Thank you.
I would like to replace the OEM hid lights with aftermarket hid lights..or just replace the oem ballast with a aftermarket one cause im sick of having to replace a oem ballast every year..
Can you show how can we make Halogen to Xenon headlights for Audi A6 C6 4F2
Don't you have to align your lights properly before asembling them completely? And if yes, how is it done?
Wasn’t very clear considering some parts where fast forward. Great job though, may I suggest adding previews showing the differences before and after this process
Good feedback :) Thanks!
Hi, With the new version, Morimoto Bi-xenon mini H1 6.0, it will be the same ? My car is Audi A4 B7 (8EC) 2007, OEM headlights 8E0 941 003 BK. On Version 6.0 overall size stayed the same, except Width, on 5.0 was 80 mm , on 6.0 is 87 mm, a wider bowl. Will be enough space to insert the projector into headlight ?
Thank you !
God job !! I have a question. Projectors installed by you is only for UK left-driven cars ? because left-driven cars headlights must have light beam oriented to left for lighten pedestrians on left side of road. A rest of Europe have a right-driven roads
Where can I find this H7 beam splitter?
Good!
