Everyone knows that Bosch headlights do not illuminate the road well at night. When driving on the near one, it is hard to see, the road runs away, and on the far one, you interfere with oncoming cars. I suggest you go with me on an unforgettable journey to tuning Bosch VAZ 2110 headlights.
Let's start with the fact that we need to remove and disassemble the headlight. I won't tell you how to remove and disassemble the headlight. There are many entries on this topic on the Internet, and step by step. We need to slightly change the design of the headlights, namely, to replace the H1 lamps with H7.
In my opinion, the H7 lamp fits perfectly into this headlight. The dimensions of the H1 and H7 lamps are the same both in height and in the location of the chrome thread. Look at the photo here:
You can drill the hole you need with such a circular saw.
2:113 3:618We disassemble, remove all the saws we do not need. The closest to the center is our saw, which will drill a hole in the headlight reflector. You need to drill a hole so that the H7 lamp is completely immersed in the hole and is kept only on the shoulder. Taking his son as his assistant (he was holding a reflector), armed with a drill and loading our saw into the chuck, he drilled a hole. Drilling doesn't smell good, so it's best to drill outside. Here's what happened.
3:1464 4:1969 5:2474By the way, you can also drill with another tool. For example, I have such a thing. In our store, it costs 30 rubles!
5:233 6:738Trying on our lamps N. They stand up perfectly, and are locked with the same clamps that held the lamps N. Here, in principle, with drilling and that's it. Now we take a soldering iron and plug it in, and in the meantime we cut off the "+" and "-" terminals that supply the H1 lamp with electricity. We clean the wires, solder other terminals (mothers). We need 4 of them per headlight. We also need a shrink cambric. Taking advantage of the moment, I inserted LEDs into the dimensions of the lamps. Here's what happened.
6:1622 7:2127 8:504I don’t know about the others, but my reflector kept falling off. This is how I solved this problem:
8:678 9:1183I just drilled a hole in advance, and, without tightening it to the end, screwed in a screw with a washer. Now is not going anywhere.
As for the lamps, I took "Novator" and "Narva", 55 w each.
After installing the headlights on the car and adjusting them (by the way, I installed the lamp with the cuts of the beads up), I drove out into an unlit section of the road in the dark. I was very surprised with my result. Now everything is very clearly visible on the nearest one - not only the road itself, but also the edge of the roadside. The headlights do not shine 10 meters from the bumper, but farther and better. Here is a photo from the car. This is the neighbor.
11:1164 12:1669This is the distant
12:1696 13:2201In the photo, the high beam, from the car about 35 steps.
13:91 14:596I called a friend, he also had a "dozen" with Bosch headlights. Made a comparison of my headlights and his on the same stretch of road. Here's what happened. This is a low beam on a friend's car.
14:897 15:1402It is distant.
15:1429 16:1934I took this photo while standing between the cars. There is also a difference!
16:2054 17:504This photo is also from about 35 steps at close range. On the right is a friend's car, on the left is mine!
17:644 18:1149Maybe many will begin to condemn me that I have spoiled the headlights, etc. I'll tell you honestly: before tuning, I tried to install Osram, Philips lamps, and many others - the result did not suit me.
And finally I want to say (well, just food for thought): now you can insert H4 instead of H7 lamps.
Standing against the wall, I hesitated to regulate them. He spat on everything, took them off and brought them home. Disassembled them completely. And, looking at the reflector itself, I realized why I could not adjust them. But because of what
18:2052 19:504It is because of him that everything happens. Cap, his mother. I changed the bulbs in the xenon headlights in the summer to a friend. I changed it, but he wanted to throw out the lamps. I twisted them in my hands, I did not let him do it. I took them for myself. I really liked the caps on these lamps that are installed on them.
19:996 20:1501The cap is held by two small screws. I threw out the lamps and tidied up the caps. And now, looking at my headlights, I remembered these caps. The cap itself with the H7 lamp was not included, and I had to work a little with sandpaper. Damn, I was so carried away that I didn't take a photo of my caps. I hope you will forgive me! I divided the upper part with scissors for the iron, the cap itself. And it turned out like in Kirzhach's lenses. All this was done so that a strip would appear on the wall, and not a beam of light in different directions. Here is a photo by the wall as it was in the summer
20:2458 21:504And so it became
21:528 22:1033Separately, they shine like this. Left
22:1096 23:1601 23:1617 24:2122Once again about the cap. And then I didn’t understand. We look at the photo of xenon. The photo shows the cap itself - it is on top of the lamp itself. It is held in place by 2 screws. And at the base of the lamp there are also 2 screws, they are also unscrewed. So I took not one cap, which is on top, but together with the "leg" that holds the cap. If you disassemble xenon, it turns out that it consists of 3 parts. Well, something like this.
Probably it is possible to modify the existing cap, but I did not. Well, I didn’t like him.
Is it blind or not? No, it doesn't blind! The photo that I attached below shows the camera. With the eyes, if you look at it, the effect is completely different.
The following photos are in garages. This is the neighbor
26:71 27:576And this is distant
27:604 28:1109It will seem to many that they are the same. But look at the neighboring garages and the gates in the distance.
It is at a distance of about 60 - 70 meters with a flash
You can see it well on wet asphalt. In the snow you can see how.
