Important Notes

- Download and pair LED LAMP Bluetooth app (if applicable) before starting to confirm functionality.
- Headlight removal, wiring, and installation guide available here.
Overview
This guide covers the process of retrofitting the Bushdoof DIY OEM+ Kit into your existing headlights or replacement housings. Headlight removal and installation in the car are detailed in our Bi-LED Installation Guide. This version uses a simple chrome shroud that clicks onto the LED projector. No RGB or lighting features (unless chosen) for a clean OEM+ look.
What You'll Need
- Screwdrivers
- Trim removal tools (or a flat-blade screwdriver)
- Multigrip pliers
- Spray paint and primer (optional for custom painting)
- Oven
- Silicone sealant
Step 1: Preparing the Headlights
- Remove all screws and unclip any fasteners holding the headlight together.
- Take out the factory globe and globe holder(s).
- Preheat your oven to 100–120°C (non-fan forced).
- Place the headlight in the oven for 3–5 minutes, or until the glue softens.
- Carefully work around the headlight to separate the lens from the housing.
- Repeat for the second headlight.
- If painting chrome pieces, remove them now. Prepare, prime, and paint as desired.
- Once painted and fully dry, reassemble all pieces.
Step 2: Installing the Projector
- Slide the billet washer followed by the rubber washer over the projector (concave side to the headlight housing flat side towards the projector).
- Insert the projector into the headlight, ensuring the wiring exits at the rear bottom (drill holes if necessary).
- Slide the H4 locking washer over the back of the projector. Use a tab-less washer to allow rotation adjustment.
- Align the projector so the divot faces perpendicular to the ground.
- Install the locking nut and tighten securely.
- Insert a moisture pack and breather if required.
Step 3: Resealing the Headlights
- Make sure the inside of the headlight is clean and free from dust, fingerprints, or marks.
- Fit the front lens back onto the housing.
- Preheat the oven again to 100–120°C (non-fan forced).
- Place the headlight in the oven for 3–5 minutes to soften the glue.
- Slowly press the lens and housing together, working around the edge to form a complete seal.
- Reinstall all screws and clips.
- Reinstall the park light and indicator light globe holders to fully seal the unit.
- Refit the rubber boot and apply silicone sealant if extra waterproofing is required.
Next Step
