- Hello . in this episode I will restore the headlights to this beautiful BMW G30 5 series, it has a cracked headlight lens and because of this water and dirt got into the headlight , the LED and LASER headlights are very sensitive to moisture, but miraculously this headlight escaped without any defects . I would replace the lens with a new one clean the headlight on the inside and I will replace and at the other headlight the lens also with a new one so that no differences can be seen between the two headlights, everything went perfectly without problems and now the car looks impeccable with the new headlights

Bro thank you so much! I had no clue how to remove the front bumper and disconnect the front bumper camera. This video illustrated that wasn't necessary to remove the grille housing or the camera to remove the bumper. 😃
Glad it helped
Brilliant insight to what is involved. I sell many of these lens and now want to progress and fit for my customers. I will try your way, rather than cutting the lens like other people do I feel yours is more safer and professional.
Thanks again
Just watched several of your videos. I love your work and attention to detail not to mention the bit that is mostly forgotten about the camera work. We definitely need you here in the uk.
Awesome, thank you!
Again I have to say it.... he’s the Michael Jordan of these repairs.
After being extremely meticulous with these repairs he cleans and lubes surrounding parts.
Many times I’ve gotten repairs to find out a few months later a simple o-ring has failed
Hey, thanks for your support!
To do a correct job you need to respect some simple steps if you do them in the future that oring won't fail 😉
No wonder that shit costs like half of a car at the local service...
All that just to remove headlights, no wonder BMW labor is so much…. Come on engineers, you can do better. 😂
Unfortunately it's not only BMW, it's nearly all cars & brand nowadays...
I like your joke 😂 eat sleep rev,, Nono cut heat cut repeat 😂
Damn I’m jus tryna change the bulb tho 😩
Wow amazing job, very well done.
I enoy your videos!
I'm thinking about updating my normal led headlights to the headlights in the video (icon lights) and wonder if I can take over the headlight module since my standard headlights are already cornering and adaptive. Coding and teach in shouldn't be a problem for me. But I’m unsure regarding the moduls, it would me much cheaper if i could take over mine.
Felicitari! ai mai castigat un abonat :)

you have to flash the TRSVC with ESYS, there is no software on it, thats why the ECU is blue. I can help if needed over REMOTE
Good job, it's a pleasure to see this kind of work! Keep it up.
Deft and skilled craftsmanship! A pleasure to watch, as always.
Glad you like . I'm glad that I have these feadbacks because all this work is not in vain to create such a clip, first of all, only the work itself due to the filming doubles its time and then many hours of video editing follow!
great video and as always a Profesional work on BMW cars 😁
Hi, do you know how to change from LHD to RHD without disassembling the cover of headlights, in my country regulation is RHD but the seller sent to me LHD version and the seller don't want to return the headlight, the headlights is iconic adaptive led for G30 like in this video. Thanks in advance.
Salut!!! Esti professor. Unde ai garajul?? Nu iti mai da credit BCR daca vede la Ce folosesti cardul lor!! Esti tare!!
Bravo 👏👏👍
Hi. Great job! I have 2018 BMW M550i - will this technique work on mine? More or less the same?
O sa iti fac niste incalzitoare siliconice pe care sa le aplici in jurul ecranului de plexiglass, pentru a-l incalzi si a-l desprinde mai usor. Sunt ca niste cureluse care se lipesc unde ai nevoie de transfer termic si pot fi termostatate.
Da interesanta ideie !
Great work! do you have a recommendation of where to get replacement lenses from? I have a crack in my RH g20 lens
What about Renault LED headlight, it is not butyl its not getting soft because when heating, the glue is hard like front glass adhesive polyurethane, can it be taken apart like yours? Where did you bought a brand new lense?
Excuse me,it removed at point 20 minutes in this video is not a light bulb,it looks like a piece of glass,how does the LED emit light?is it control module at the rear?how to work?
Would the process be the same for a 2021 m5 competition with LCI lights?
Super tare Ovidiu! Răbdare de fier! Mulțumim pentru video!
Wow alot of work in that job. You sir have the patience of a saint!
I had hoped to have my G20 laser lights inner surround de-chromed but after looking at this repair it seems it's well beyond my skill set:(
Thanks 👍
Great video man !! It’s a lot of work , my Son car headlight on driver side is cracked n I’m debating to buy a used one instead of lens but know I know I can watch your video n probably tackle the old headlight if I replace it with a new one , to have a spare , we appreciate this video!👍🏾👍🏾
u the best in the world thank u man
Thanks for appreciation!
Will this process work the same on my 2018 BMW M550i ?
salut , cum scap de condens la acelasi model de faruri ? sau care poate fii cauza ? unul arata bine fara urme de umezeala si celalalt e plin de condens cand ploua si e frig .
mersi daca ai timp sa îmi raspunzi as aprecia foarte mult ajutorul .
Hey do you need to disconnect the battery? if yes which one? Thanks.
Felicitări! Ești foarte tare.am urmărit mai mult videourile cu E65.acolo team descoperit.
Super tare !
Thank you for the video. Is it possible for you to leave a list of all the necessary tools for this job
I need my headlight repaired
Hi there, I do have the same problem with an f11, do you have an advice where to purchase new lenses?
Another good Job... Regards ;) BTW.... for the bumper removal... the card should be Credit Card or Debit Card? ;) ;) ;) ;)
Good question 🤔 hmm hard to tell need to study the Tis information for that 😀😃 thanks for appreciation 👍
You’re a goat 🐐 you should post more vids with the g30 so I can learn everything about mines. 😂
How much does it cost to get it replaced by a repair man do you think?
Great video and detail. Could you please let me know where I could purchase the lens cover? Do you have a specific vendor you prefer to use? If you could provide a link it would be great. Thanks for your videos.
Could someone please provide url link to G30 headlight Lens cover which we can purchase?
I would also like to know
@@Filip-tw7bu if you happen to find out where we can get it please post it here as they never replied to my post. Thank you.
@@JorgeSanchez-xm7pc maybe China, but some cheap quality. For the moment they aren't aftermarket parts of headlight. Only if you get from a doner car that was crushed. So if you have problems buy a new one or try with used
Great video! How much did this repair cost?
awesome work, terrible pain to watch also :)
Do u have a link for the lens I had the exact same problem with the exact same car
Very good Nerves, job is simply wow..its done perfectly
This helps so much I want to replace my cracked lenses but didn’t want to risk damaging the headlight by just cutting it out. Great content and coverage of the entire process!
Where can I purchase those lens from I have the same problem
Another great job. This is one of the best contents on RUclips.
Glad you think so!
best vedio I have ever seen in youtube, you are true master
das mit dem Heizen können Sie vergessen. Lieber die Scheibe zerschlagen in kleine Stücke und die neue Scheibe einsetzen, ansonsten macht ihr noch den Scheinwerfer kaputt.
amazing work on the g30's!
Nice.. you are so talented ! subscribed your channel ,watching from Qatar... also i owns 2016 BMW 5 Series in Qatar.. 1st year i got an accident with Qatar taxi from a mall parking area & replaced my cars left Head light unit completely under Insurance coverage & the broken one is still with me...
Hello! Thanks for appreciation and for your short story 😀
@@MOvidiu Hi Thank you for your reply
Hi Ovi! Is it possible to do this (change the cover) on F36 (4 Gran Coupe)? Thanks for the video! Great work, again!
Hello, yes it is possible to be done!
Someone's been messing about with the software, it's got the Alpina B5 software on the instrument cluster and the mileage has been altered 🤣 probably using one of those online programming services, looks like they messed up the software on the TRSVC while doing this
Also that can has a crazy high spec, almost every option
Thank you so much for posting. You have no idea how glad I am I found this video. I naively thought I could take the front bumper off my G31 (I wish to install front lip). However I got stuck after freeing the bumper - no clue how to unplug the electrics and headlight washer. After seeing your video I will continue today to give it a go. Thank you so much
Amazing, let us know how it was going !
@@MOvidiu I got the bumper off eventually. But had to break the electric connectors, where they attach to the white brackets (those teeth / grooves). Just found it impossible to release them. Used tape to fix them when put them bumper back on
What makes a BMW so gorgeous are those beautiful quad light “eyes” - thanks as always for restoring the beauty to this one!! Looks amazing!! 😎😎
Thanks for sharing and God bless!! 🇿🇦🇿🇦
I'm glad you enjoyed, if you want send me a mail and I'll will show you a behind the scene 😉
great content, learned a lot! i have the same model and condensation only happen after car wash, not during heavy rain, any idea what might have caused it?
It could be the pressure of the water jets in the car wash, forcing water past the seals. Or it could be that some car washes use warm water and the temperature difference from outside to inside causes condensation.
Eat, sleep, rave. Repeat 😂😂😂
Hey, where did you get your lens cover from? Somebody backed into my 2018 for 440 grand coupe and cracked the headlight lens so would love to replace it the way you did instead of the four almost $5000 BMW wanted to charge me to replace the entire headlight if you could help appointment in the right direction to get a lens I would be very grateful and appreciative for your help in time.
Many thanks for your videos. As always, good job. Greetings from Slovakia.
Glad you enjoyed and thanks for appreciation!
hello 😍🇬🇪👋👋👋 Thank you for the video..❤👍
Thank you too !
Hi, question. How would you compare opening and fixing G30 to F10 headlights? Which one is harder to fix?
I mean if you can break it apart like that and I trust you. Can't you repair my 2016 750 driver headlight. You have cashapp??? I'm ready. I already have it pulled.
Im planning to upgrade my g30 headlights to the full LED ones, for the two modules on the headlights, are they the same for different style headlights? (i mean can i just take out my old ones and assemble them on the new full led ones), thanks a lot!!!
very good job,insa...mai rapid este daca il bagi in cuptor la 95grade pt.15min,se desface incredibil de usor.....
ai scris la profil ca esti localizat in us,insa,in clipurile tale apar prize de europa....
am si eu ceva de facut la un bmw F40 2021

Where id you purchase the replacement lens?
Online, Ebay if I remember correctly! You can use Google.com for a quick search!
Top quality repair job! Does BMW sell headlight covers separately?
Hello, no they don't sell them, they are made by some aftermarket manufacturer
Great video
How to take the last plug put of the headlights…I did everything…struggeling with this one
Hey mate if the headlight adjuster is not working on the same headlight how do you fix that?
At the end, you cleared all of the errors. Is this required when you remove a headlight? What happens if you don’t clear the errors?
Спасибо за качественный контент.
Bravo frate , am condens in cea de pe partea stanga si vroiam sa ma apuc sa o fac , dar stiind ca sunt varza mai bine nu ma apuc sa nu stric ceva 🤣🤣. Super tutorialul ! Bravo!

Hey, what's the liquid you used to clean the shiny parts? I started cleaning with alcohol wipes and the shiny paint started coming off🤐🥶
It's a solution for cleaning windows, but you don't have to press hard because that layer thin
Good job. As usual!!!!
thanks bro, this video help so much.. thumbs up bro
Hi why is it a BIG SECRET where we can buy these aftermarket lenses. You want us to subscribe to your channel and you want us to see your videos but you don’t want to help your subscribers. We live all over the world so not everyone of us can come to you so you can earn money to change our lenses. SO PLEASE TELL US WHERE WE CAN BUY THE LENSES, THANKS.
Hello! I think you misunderstood something, first there is no special place from witch to buy lenses , the only place is eBay use your common sense do a Google search and you will find. Secondly I have specified very clearly in the video :
This channel is not an advertisement for a shop or something like that, it is for educational and entertainment purposes so please do not send messages with questions like where you are or where to find you , I do not offer services . Thank you for your understanding ! . So next time be more carful and read the video descriptions before conclusion ...
Esti ghini di tat
Great job 👏 you are genius 👍🏻
Thank you! Cheers!
I cracked the cover of a standard 2018 G30 LED headlamp and the only dealer in Peru wants to charge US$ 4500 for the whole assembly -just parts-.
Yes that is the normal price of that car headlight. and officially is not repairable, it is completely replaced. just because I fix it or there are others who fix headlights, that doesn't mean everyone has to do the same. or that this should become the rule in the automotive industry
My headlight comes on when I start the car. But it turns off but day time lights work fine. No blinker or low beam on driverside. 😥
Help me. $$$$$#
Can you use silicone as glue?
NO! you can't, the silicone won't adhere to the headlight case

👏👏👏👏👏👏
I have a dead spider in my headlights. Now I know what happened.
Hi bro, amazing job
What country are you?
I want to change the lens of my car too F11
Hello, please read the video description! Thanks 😊
How do you deal with butyl glueing Hella headlights (like on F20 LCI), they have no screws to hold lens cover, only some stupid U-shaped nails that are burned through the cover and housing. I have tried before to put these in but that was not really possible.
For now I'm thinking to put some regular U-clips around the edges of the lense (as on AL headlight like from BMW F45 LCI)
On the other set of Hella headlights for a Renault the lense comes apart a bit, no big moisture problems but body lines are a bit weird due to this
Hello ! check out on my channel I have other videos with headlight repair !
@@MOvidiu Thank you for your fast reaction, I saw one where you put back the original lense (for F10 I think), but new lense doesn't have the holes I think, I will look some more. You have great video's!
Can you show us how to remove the reverse bulb?
Legend ! saved me so much time !
