Would you recommend strengthening that frame from the AFS with something like a copper wire and JB weld? Or do you think it’s fine just the way it is after trimming

Not 100% sure the bi-led would work. The HID swap just barely clears the AFS swiveling. Would have to test on the next go around. NO errors with HID but LED you would need coding I believe.
@@sunterko All depends on the paint to you use and how you use it. We use SEM Trim Black. After a short baking cycle in the oven at a lower temp it can be assembled same day.
@@LightwerkzGlobal thanks for reply. It looked like a soldering iron attachment so I used mine and it worked well. Also, you appear to be doing a pre LCI headlight from the looks of it. I will be working on my LCI soon.
I am currently retrofitting Bi-Xenon headlights to an E70 which has factory fitted Halogen units. Those amber halos look really nice.
Would be better if you actually showed the process of removing permaseal and rest of lens
I love how your work table doubles as a functional billboard for Morimoto, HR, and TRS 😂
I know right! I dont see any checks from them....
@@LightwerkzGlobal 🤣
Wow that’s amazing work!
Thanks!
Great video guys.
Awesome job! Just awesome!
Where did you get a replacement front casing when you cut the old one off?
I need to do my ford escape’s

Perfectly fine as is. Still really strong.
Great job! How did you made the bigger ring with a cut top. Its not possible to buy it like this..
The Diode Dynamics halos can be cut anywhere. So modification is very easy to create the U-Shape.
what bulb you used for the angel halo in the end, the amber light?
These are the Diode Dynamics HD LED switchback halos. Check the description for the links!
great job! why didn't you install bi led projectors?
We believe in HID > LED. End of the day, it's the customers choice though. Nothing beats the serviceability of HID though.
Amazing work. Would love to do this on my E70. Do you provide this service? How much?

Where do you get the aftermarket lenses? I’ve never been able to find lenses for my Pontiac G6
The suppliers have lenses for many euro and Japanese models. I dont see anything for the G6.
Where are you located? Can you replace an E38 BMW headlight?

Hello great video, what did you use to heat up the old lens before pulling out with pliers?
You would put it in the oven for 20-30 mins at a time at 240F
Thank you
Switch backs...what program is needed?
Bimmercode App will do the trick
Copy, thank you
Do you happen to know if the F15 and E70 use the same projector?
Appears to be!
Are the turn signals on the left still going to be used or only the halos?
Yes the original turn signals will still be used.
Is it possible to change the projector to Bi Led and if possible how are the dash errors delt with?
Not 100% sure the bi-led would work. The HID swap just barely clears the AFS swiveling. Would have to test on the next go around. NO errors with HID but LED you would need coding I believe.
How did you secure the Halos inside the housing? Epoxy resin, Beading wire, double sided tape?
Fishing line and epoxy.
@@LightwerkzGlobal thanks for the response! What paint do you use and how long do you let it cure before re-sealing lights?

@@LightwerkzGlobal Much appreciated. Thanks for the additional info!
What is the tool or tip you used to melt old lense
Ultrasonic cutting tool.

How much are they?
