Why do we need lenses in the headlights, and how to install them?

Often, owners of domestic cars and even foreign cars complain of poor lighting in the dark. Some solve this problem by replacing the optics with a new one, someone mounts the xenon, and some install special lenses in the headlights. The latter are characterized by a brighter and more stable light beam, so they are even more effective than xenon in efficiency.

What do they consist of?

Bi-xenon lenses in headlamps are made from multiple structural parts, which at the finish are combined into one large module. It contains the entire electronic stuffing, that is, without which the headlight will not be activated. Often a lamp with a color temperature of 5000K is installed inside the headlamp. At the request of the driver, it can be replaced by a more powerful one. And on the sides of the production is installed a special oversized ring.

Nuances when installing a new part

It is worth noting that the process of installing the lens in the headlights is not so complicated as it seems at first glance. If you at least superficially know the electronic system of the car, you can safely get down to work. However, if you are not confident in your abilities, it is better to apply to the SRT, otherwise incorrect installation of the lens in the headlights will lead to the most unpredictable consequences until it breaks down.

The process of removal and installation of this part can be divided into several steps, each of which we will now consider in detail.

1. We proceed to dismantle the exterior design of the headlamp unit. To properly remove the standard optics, use the instruction manual. This process is not very complicated, and it can be done in a few minutes.
2. After we proceed to disconnect the wires and connect the new optics. Fix the xenon lens in the headlamp without drilling any additional holes and places. The whole detail is placed on a regular place without changes, therefore every motorist can cope with it. After installing a new optics, you must fix its position using the clamping nuts. Everything, the headlight is ready for use. We just need to adjust the lens to deliver a normal light beam.

How to adjust this part?

At adjustment it is possible to go two ways: to address on HUNDRED where for an additional payment for you will make all work, or to adjust a lens the hands. To do this, you need to go to a special site (it is important that it was flat, and the car did not stand at an angle). Next, find the adjusting place under the hood and rotate it until the headlamp will not normally shine. But here it is best to trust not the intuition, but the recommendations of the manufacturer. Since all cars are special in their own way, the adjustment value is also not always the same. And in the manual everything is written in detail. And one more thing - when making this process with the right headlight, lower it slightly. This is done so that at night not to blind the oncoming drivers. With a left lamp, you can not do this - the desired effect of its lowering will not be anyway.
