BMW E46 Projectors: The Ultimate Upgrade for Your BMW E46 Headlights (2023 Retrofitlab)

[@likits1999]

Hey brother I would like to retrofit my headlights but the insulation on the red and green wires crumbled off the wires when I touched them. I wanted to take everything apart but I was afraid to do it. No that I see your video, it is possible to take them apart. Awesome video. Where do I buy the metal projectors from? Thanks in advance!

Hey I am glad that you are doing it. It really isnt hard to do especially if you take your time. It would be done in 4-5 hours. I got mine from Retrofitlab just make sure to know which kit you needed. I needed the bi-xenon ZKW kit for mine.

I got this kit for my car and my wires are shot too, my high beams don't work but it's fine I don't really use them anyways, I think there are better options than the retrofit lab set of projectors that have an easier installation and better fit/easier to level because that's the tricky part is making sure the cutoff line isn't crooked

@@jacobbruner1 my kit came with a metal template to ensure level projector housings. There are definitely a few good retro fit sets. I just found that the retrofitlab ones use the best quality materials so I never have to do this again.

How do you like these projectors so far? I just ordered their BiLed retrofit for my factory zkw halogens

[@carsavi]

So far its a day and night difference! I've had it for a while now and zero issues. It might be brighter with LED D2S bulbs but for now its great. One thing that I didnt notice is that my headlight level sensor was broken so its even better now.

what did you do to guarantee the projectors are aligned properly , what would be the best process? i'm about to receive these bad boys but i've heard the alignment is an issue and everybody uses dremel and stuff. What is your take on this ?

[@carsavi]

Alignment in the housing should not be a problem to install them. If you need to move the alignment screws like I did, you will need to find a blank wall to align them properly. There are a few videos on youtube on how to align them properly with the plastic screws. It doesnt have to be 100% perfect.
