BMW Headlight installation
Installation overview of a BMW E46 OEM Projector Halogen Headlight + CCFL on a 2005 BMW 318Ci.
The Depo headlights had to go because of faulty, weak lighting.
First we removed the front bumper of the E46 coupe, then removed the lower headlight trim, wheelarch bolts. the 4x size 8 bolts that hold each headlight.

its so funny with the "censor" head in front of you. It makes it look like you don't even have to look at what you're doing XD

taking off the bumper is really unnecessary and silly

Nice job. What are the dimensions of the led rings? Are they equal? I have headlights with xenon projectors. Will they fit mine too?

Where can i find just the lens for this model of headlight , for when I'll open them i want to change the glass as well. Thanks

Top tip, don't use windex or other ammonia based cleaners on polycarbonate lenses. Ammonia expidites the process of lens degradation and you'll end up with hazy/yellow lenses way sooner than you would otherwise. Soap and water is all that's required, and a carnuba based wax can then be applied (yes to plastics)

Can you help me get the same Head light Assembly for my 2005 BMW 330Ci ZHP package? I tried looking on E-Bay UK but couldn't find them.

Wo kriegt man die Scheinwerfer her bitte um Hilfe :/ Bei Ebay gibts zwar welche aber die hier mag ich mehr weil die Angel Eyes unterhalb net so versteckt sind und mag es mehr wenn oben diese kleine Stelle is wo es nicht leuchtet.

Pempi, állítólag ha a kocsin van fényszoró mosé, ami az eredeti xenonokhoz van, nehezebb kioperálni a lámpákat...tudsz erről valamit ?

Will the e46 faclift coupe headlights fit on a e46 facelift sedan (adding the new trim under the headlights from the coupe)??? Eesentially will the facelifted headlights fit on the car and on the fenders...

@BMWReviews 5 жыл бұрын

I have no information on that, you may have to adjust the body parts. Coupe / sedan fenders are completely different in dimensions & shape
