𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
0:01 Heat the headlight in the carton box for about 18 minutes and separate the glass from the housing. Unfortunately this headlight is permasealed what makes it a little harder as butyl headlights.
When the sealant is cooled down, heat it up again in the box
1:31 Once the glass is separated you have access to the inlay. Remove it all if you want to paint the reflector
2:11 Remove the bulb holder and sand and clean it before you can use the primer. After the primer is dry you can spray a couple layers of the color you want (matte black is used here)
3:07 Drill a hole in the reflector for the bi-xenon wires
(Unfortunately I had missed a step, I didn't check if the projector fits directly.. It won't in the reflector so I had to modify it a little. After that of course I need to paint it again
4:02 Now, let's install the Mini D2S bi-xenon projector. Don't forget the rubber ring on the tail, use the H4 centric ring to align it and fasten the projector on with the included nut on the tail
4:45 This step is now needed in every headlight, please check it before you start grinding. The projector hits the reflector a little, so I decided to cut of some edges of the projector (of course I did this step before I mount it in the reflector)
5:25 Add some new butyl sealant and place all parts back in the housing again
6:15 Glue the Iris shroud on the projector with normal contact glue of with 2 components glue like JB weld
7:22 Install the bulb and close the back with the rubber cap again
7:54 Press the glass back on the housing and heat it up again. After it's heat enough press it further in the housing, you can also secure it with clamps
8:50 Final view!

𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆:
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!

For a car that does not have projectors from the factory, after you fit the aftermarket projectors can you use the signal (usually the high beam) without having turned the headlights on?

Hi. what xenon kit are u using? is the droser visible or you can place it in the headlight?
ola amigo, tenho 2 perguntas pra voce: gostaria de saber que tpio de cola é esse que vc utiliza nesse video, qual a que voce recomenda e a outra é onde voce compra os projetores ?
it'll be a good idea to cover up the lens assembly to protect it from the grinding debris. It's all in the details bud.
How did u got the projector separately just asking and how do u know how to make it fit btw
U should reccomend osram diadem indicator bulb :)
the best retrofit i've seen so far! and a question, is it possible for you guys to retrofit my OEM golf mk4 lights?

Hello guys! I have a doubt with these system; if you are driving at the day with the sun and everything and everything, and you have the lights off (because you are driving at the middle of the day) and you want to turn-on the high beams lights for a second just to make a sign or something like that, (remember, lights are off) my question is: it does turn on the high beams? (because you take as "high beam" the plate for the projector and not the original high beam light). I hope you undersand my doubt.
Helio, do you sell the complete headlights? I don't have the skill needed to do it myself
Hi uit Brazilië Ik heb een twijfel Om 4:45 u zowel de bovenste uiteinden van de lens stuk metaal en op 05:52 als je het zal vast weer snijd de beide bovenste uiteinden nog steeds er weer. Dus wat is het punt van het snijden ?

Maybe not sharp but used to this view. Few days ago I just put exactly the same lenses to polo 6n2 (bought from Retrofitlab of course) The very first thing which I wanted to do was cut off those mountings because 3" lenses are just hughe. So for now just need to do wiring for hi/lo beam, and the night driving become a pleasure :) In the meantime I'm doing an interior light fade out turn off, will see. gg.gg/74qi7

Another question is, because of the law here in brazil, i cannot use xenon all the times, is it possible to use a halogen bulbs like Phillips Diamond Vision inside the projectors? Thank you.

Er zijn verschillende manieren om dit te doen, bijvoorbeeld het originele lichtbeeld op een stuk muur markeren met tape en later de projector hierop afstellen, in de koplamp zit die al bijna horizontaal door de adapterring en de projector pas na het afstellen helemaal vast draaien. Dit kan ook op een werkbank. Of het kan ook door de koplamp horizontaal neer te zetten (vaak is er wel een horizontale lijn op de reflector of de behuizing) en dan he lichtbeeld ook weer horizontaal afstellen, op een horizontale lijn op de muur of een laser etc.
