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!
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.

A few things to note if you're thinking about doing this: I just did this mod last night to my OEM AL Halogen Reflectors, on a UK 2003 330i and after much trial and error have it figured out and now want to help you! Click Read More to see a huge guide on this project. :) The below is mostly not shown in this video! -- The headlights in this video are the ZKW, and the ring he punches out is specific to them. The AL will not have it! -- Wear gloves, and have a microfiber to hand to clean magical fingerprints off shiny surfaces. -- Do not touch the bulb glass. -- The projector come with bulb mounting mechanism screwed on, you need to remove this in order to mount projector. Also note the metal clip - this is used to mount the bulbs and should be removed before mounting. -- The rubber grommet shown in video will prevent the project sitting fully inside the bowl, and prevent you screwing in the bulb mount. I had to ditch this. -- If you use the E46R shroud (the one in vid) you will need to trim the top-left of the shroud in order for it to fit. -- You need to clip in a black adaptor ring into the projector shroud, and then press fit it in place. -- Do not touch the bulb glass. -- To mount xenon bulbs, locate the little notches and place bulb inside, now take the clip and slide it into the holes as far as it can go. From here I used pliers to get both sides down and into the latching mechanism. -- I was unable to de-pin the connector as shown here, so I had to snip and solder on the other side. For me, leaving 7/10 length on the projector, and 3/10 on the connector worked fine for me with plenty of room to work. -- For AL headlights, I had to drill a hole BELOW the mounting point, but still out of sight. -- If you go for Xb35 bulbs, they come with an extra adaption harness. you can safely remove them. -- Do not touch the bulb glass. -- Be ready to "clock" the projectors - I use pliers and grab the outside from where the bulb mounts, and twist. it should resist heavily but still be able to move -- Mark on your wall the point your halogens hit BEFORE you do this, or take it to someone who can adjust headlights accurately afterwards. Xenon's are bright, don't be a dick and blind people. -- If you touched the bulb glass, wipe it down with isopropyl and clear skin oils off. This will kill bulbs (xenon, halogen) faster than expected! Hopefully this helps somebody. Please do join in below if you have anything constructive to add!

@Retrofitlab
@Retrofitlab 4 жыл бұрын
Good question! The cable is a solenoid cable and it is used to trigger the high beam mechanism on the projector. It is connected to the original high beam signal with a splitter (normally included in our kits) so you have bi-xenon/high beam from the projector and from the original high beam.

My experience with similar retrofit kits is that the reflector ring does not lock in position on the lens. The plastic tabs of the ring have nowhere to lock onto the metal housing, so they always fall off, unless you glue them. Since there was no audible click when you put the OEM reflector ring back in, does your kit have the same problem, if not, can you show us how the reflector ring is held in place?

Sorry, what do you mean with the reflector ring? The chrome shroud? Because yes, you are correct it, unfortunately, needs to be glued. kzbin.info/www/bejne/emHRc619dtJ5ncU
@petergondolier4088
@petergondolier4088 3 жыл бұрын
The chrome shroud, reflector ring, whatever you want to call it, has to be glued in. You could use the OEM reflector ring without gluing it, with the addition of a semi-circular piece of sheet metal to the lens housing as follows: 1. Get a piece of 16 gauge sheet metal. 2. Measure the circular distance from one side of the top of the lens arm, to the top of the other lens arm, add about 3/4" to the total. 3. Cut a piece of sheet metal about 3/4" wide by the length you determined. 4. Bend the metal piece in a semi-circle so it fits flush along the back edge of the reflector lens housing. 5. Trim the piece to fit as closes as possible to the same shape as the metal housing. 6. Hold the piece in position and trim the length so it overlaps the side of the housing by 1/2". 7. Secure the piece to the hosing on both sides with a small pair of needle nose vice grips. 8. Drill a 1/8" hole through both pieces and secure each side with a short pop rivet. 9. Install the reflector and mark the locations of the original 2 side retaining snaps on the sheet metal ring. 10. Cut out a notch with a dremmel for the tooth of the snap ring and install it. Note: In steps 3 and 6 the width/length may need to be wider, or shorter, trial and error will determine the size and placement you need.

It depends a lot on which original headlights you have, single xenon / bi-xenon and the brand, ZKW or AL bosch, more info here; blog.retrofitlab.com/the-great-bmw-3-e46-headlight-page/ based on your model you probably have the bi-xenon version from AL, but please check to be sure :-)

+BMW E46 Bosnia Fan love bmw Absolutely yes. Grab a pair of cheap headlights and slap these projectors in. You will lose the auto-leveling function and you will have to use usual ballasts, but it will be legal and have the same performance as the originals (if not better). I have these projectors on my scooter and it produces more light on the road than my BMW E46 with original Xenon headlights.

This is the halogen headlight which is converted to bi-xenon (with a 2,5" projector).

I've just completed my headlight projector retro fit on my 04 e46 sport tourer... I've also noticed when ppl say ensure the projectors are straight on the light housing ... however there's small tabs on the adaptor plate to & screw attachment point on the rear of the projector etc so they only go in 1 way which ensures there level... you only need to make sure the adaptor plate doesn't work loose n swing rnd whilst tightening the locking nut. upto now I'm very impressed with the projector install compared to bare hid install or basic bulbs as supplied

Yes, to bi-xenon, and no halos were added, but could have been done :-).

can i use led bulb for this projector? and it still be H7 right?
@Retrofitlab
@Retrofitlab 3 жыл бұрын
You can use LED in the projector, but it needs to be a H1 version. But output/pattern wise we strongly advise to use xenon in the projector, the light output and pattern with a xenon bulb is quite poor, with a '360' version it is acceptable, with a 2 sides LED it's very bad. www.retrofitlab.com/aharon-360-led-lampen-h1.html. blog.retrofitlab.com/h1-led-versus-xenon-mini-h1-projector/
