I just ordered my replacement lenses and will be tackling this soon. I've watched several videos using the oven baking technique versus cutting out the old lenses so I'm going to give that a shot. Your videos have helped me with a few Z4 projects. Much appreciated!
This is super helpful and thank you for this awesome video!!! I have the exact same issue with both headlights (vertical cracks) so I would like to ask you: are these parts good enough? I guess you are already using this one for some time, any issues? thank you!!!
It's been about 2 years since the repair. How does it look now? I am about to order a pair of these lenses as mine have mini cracks inside the glass which cannot be polished...
I'm thinking the dog 🐕 took the blame for you leaving wooden battens next to the vehicle?... 😉 Thought the dog had a guilty look about him... 😂 You are a man with a serious amount of patience because I'm not sure many would attempt that repair.. You know the real test will be if any humidity shows up inside the lens.. I'm hoping not... Of course now you must polish the other headlight lens so they match.. Great effort.. what's next for the i3?
Welllll, I had to share the blame with someone! It has been about 10 days since I installed it and I've left the car outside in the rain for a few days, no issues so far! The i3 has been lowered, widened and got some new shoes! Video coming out soon (2+ hours of video to edit down). I'm very happy with the results! Thanks for watching!
You are very patient and skillful.... You can count on BMW to ensure doing any repairs will be as difficult as possible, no more BMWs for me.
Great job Andriy! Even my wife likes watching your videos. That was quite the surgery. Looks terrific again.
Thanks, Mil! Great to hear and this one really tested my patience.

Happy to hear you find them useful and good luck on the headlight. Let me know how it goes.
How did it go? Planning on oven baking the headlights in my E87 to replace the projectors. Did the glue used make removing the lens a pain in the ass?
That’s a mission! Nice job.
wow that's a lot of work, but looks great now!
Your wheels are 🔥
do an xpel film protection & if it turns foggy after many years just change the film. that will make it clear & shiny for ever
Well done sir.

They make it so damn hard to repair cars yourself now!
That is madness just to take a light out, Land Rover Disco lights come out with seconds without any tools just a couple of switches.
Whilst i had the lens off i replaced the halos with led and fitted a led fog light in the blank inner space.
Hey cool. I need to get bugs out of my lights. This the only video like this I think.

@@SimpleCarGuy great.. Looking forward to that
Where do you order replacement lenses? I have a Volvo C 70
I ma searching about headlight lenses for my Toyota auris hybrid 2014?
Great video
Thanks!
A soldering iron might have helped with the glue
you could warm up and use the old glue.
yeah I think it would be better just to buy a new unit so water cant get in. but not a bad video
300 to 400 for a new assembly...versus under 100 for the lens........................
@@kjterzif you’re lucky! Prices have gone up! Cheapest is $500 not including shipping
Did the repair last in the long run? Any more leaks?
It’s been great since the repair thought the winter. No leaking or moisture inside
Excellent video.
Price info???
What rims are these?
BMW m437 from m3/m4

とても参考になりました。ただ日本で交換レンズが手に入るかこれから、検索してみます。どなたか詩っておられたら教えてください。
