hello everyone. im currently doing the joey mod to my r56 cooper with xenons.

i have the headlights sitting next to me. i took out the two metal clips. and i believe my next step is to debulb and deballast before i put it in the oven. now if im not mistaken, i have removed the screws from the metal piece that seems like the ballast and disconnected that piece completely. i was able to take out the orange signal bulb as well. but im having trouble taking out the xenon bulb, any suggestions? or do i even need to take em out?

 

ok got it. took off the ballasts and the bulbs, baked, and removed clear lenses. now im just stuck at how to take off the damn projecter ring! everything else seem to be going good. i'll try to get some pics up after im done

 

ughh anybody!?! this is urgentt please

 

You have to reach in with a long small t8 bit i believe and remove a tiny screw under the ring. there is also a very small latch that you have to unclip. There are pics on here somewhere i'll look for them real quick

 

There are two metal clips that hold the projector ring on top of the lens. You need to apply pressure to both of them and pull the ring off. Then, you take a Torx 8 screwdriver (hard to find) and take the opaque plastic off the projector ring.

YOU CAN DO IT!

 

Shane, are you following me around NAM? lol

 

ughh
still having trouble finding these metal clamps....i see a bunch of metal clamps, not just two. then i see two plastic clamps holding the clear part in. but i still cannot get the frikkin projector out...

can anybody find me pics? it would be much appreciated!

 

WOOO got it! time to paint and put the pieces of the puzzle back together =]

thanks for all the help guys
