Installation tutorial for our popular Mini H1 Bi-xenon projector twin kit done on the Alfa Romeo 147 headlight. We show how to bake and open the headlight and mount the xenon projectors. At the end of the video we compare the halogen light output to plug & play xenon and Bi-xenon retrofit projectors Mini H1.

Mostriamo come cuocere e aprire il faro e montare il proiettori allo xeno. Alla fine del video si confronta l'emissione di luce alogena per plug & play xeno e bi-xeno retrofit proiettori H1 Mini.

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀:
0:01 Bake the headlight. We use a big carton box with a heatgun. We put the headlight on small boxes so the hot air will be blown under the headlight, not only on one side.
0:09 In this case we use a 500W heatgun for 15 minutes.
0:14 Start to pry the headlight. In this case it is perma-sealed, so the seal doesn't really get soft, you will need to cut the sealing with the screw driver.
0:37 After working a couple of minutes the headlight housing cools down, heat it up again for a few minutes.
0:40 Work with patience and not too much force. This headlight took us 20 to 30 minutes to open properly.
1:04 Cut the remaining permaseal off the headlight lens using a sharp knife.
1:10 Scrape the remainign permaseal out of the headlight channel using a flathead screw driver.
1:18 Remove the bulb glare cap.
1:34 To mount the Bi-xenon projector, break the glare cap holder away.
2:05 Remove the bulb clip holder from the projector.
2:10 Mount the Mini Gatling Gun shroud with the 4 supplied screws.
2:19 Remove the black plug from the solenoid wires.
2:21 Insert the wires through the glare cap opening.
2:24 Place the rubber ring on the Mini H1 projector shaft. In this case the thin ring is used to give more thread length for the nut.
2:28 Place the projector in the reflector.
2:32 Place the H7 adapter ring.
2:42 Place the nut to secure the projector.
2:53 Secure the nut using needle nose pliers.
3:00 Place back the solenoid plug on the wires.
3:17 In this case we needed to bend the bulb clip holder a bit to fit properly
3:34 Mount the bulb clip holder with the 3 screws
3:42 Put the Butyl in the headlight channel for a proper seal
4:00 Press it down with your fingers
4:10 Clean fingerprints and dust off
4:28 In this case, customer wanted the headlight insert black
4:30 Press the lens on the housing.
4:33 Heat the headlight again for the sealant to become soft.
4:38 Press the lens back on the housing.
4:46 Gently squeeze the lens on the housing, make sure all the lens clips click back on.
5:05 Insert the H1 HID bulb in the projector.
5:12 Place the clip to secure the bulb.
5:28 Place the H7 high beam splitter to connect the solenoid for high beam functionallity.
5:40 Headlight retrofitted!
5:43 Original H7 halogen beam
5:53 H7 reflector plug & play 5000K
6:04 Mini H1 Bi-xenon projector retrofit
𝗔𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗮 𝗕𝗶-𝘅𝗲𝗻𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝘁 𝗸𝗶𝘁:
• Much better light output
• Double high beam (xenon + halogen)
• No glare
• Lower energy consumption (35 watt instead of 55 watt)
• Luxury OEM look

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!
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.

Thanks! In general, 2 methods are used, with both methods, be careful and patient. Method 1 is using a regular oven. Preheat the oven at 200 degrees Celsius. When ready, switch off the oven and place the headlight inside. Make sure that the headlight is not touching any metal of the oven by placing a cloth over the grid, for example. Leave the headlight in the oven for 10-15 minutes before opening it. If the headlight kit is not yet soft enough, put the headlight in the oven for a bit more time. Method 2 is suitable for larger headlights that do not fit in a regular oven, or if your lovely wife absolutely does not allow car parts to be baked in her kitchen. A large cardboard box is used where hot air is blown through a heatgun. Make sure that the hot air of the heatgun does not blow directly to the headlight, place the headlight on small elevations so that the air can circulate properly through the box. We use a setting of 300 Degrees Celsius for 12-18 minutes / 1st lowest setting, depending on the size of the headlight.

Correct, the projectors are made for HID xenon bulbs. That's why there is also no ground/- connection on the projector like normal and needed on an H1 halogen bulb base.

Using (most common ) LED bulbs in a projector will give a lot of dark spots in the beam pattern. 360 degree LED bulbs are the only 'suitable' solution.

Yes, light output will improve a lot. It depends a bit on your country and inspector. Normally it is no problem with a halogen bulb, because the light pattern is perfect and not blinding for oncoming traffic.

***** I sorted this a while ago. There are two adjustment screws on the top of each headlight, I though one was for dipped beam and the other for main beam as they are separate bulbs, turns out they both adjust the whole headlight unit. I have got the beam pattern to an appropriate height to not upset an MOT tester. This kit is fantastic, gives an excellent beam with 4300k, very crisp and clear. It all tucks away in the headlight unit so doesn't look obviously retrofit. I didn't bother connecting the main beam so these lights just work as dipped beam but works fine. Cheers!

In general, 2 methods are used, with both methods, be careful and patient. Method 1 is using a regular oven. Preheat the oven at 200 degrees Celsius. When ready, switch off the oven and place the headlight inside. Make sure that the headlight is not touching any metal of the oven by placing a cloth over the grid, for example. Leave the headlight in the oven for 10-15 minutes before opening it. If the headlight kit is not yet soft enough, put the headlight in the oven for a bit more time. Method 2 is suitable for larger headlights that do not fit in a regular oven, or if your lovely wife absolutely does not allow car parts to be baked in her kitchen. A large cardboard box is used where hot air is blown through a heatgun. Make sure that the hot air of the heatgun does not blow directly to the headlight, place the headlight on small elevations so that the air can circulate properly through the box. We use a setting of 300 Degrees Celsius for 12-18 minutes / 1st lowest setting, depending on the size of the headlight.
