2002 Lens Removal Problem + More Questions

[jgmsethi]

I have a 2002 X5 3.0 and i removed the lens inside the lights. Everything is fine but when im driving on a street with no lights, it seems that the lights are like 2 flashlights and it doesnt really cover the street too well. It doesnt floood the road.

Any sugesstions?

Also what is the nxt thing for me to do? Cheap upgrades!


Thanks.

If you are referring to the waffles inside the headlights that you removed then I think I understand what you're saying. The problem is you should never remove the waffles if you don't have stock xenon HID system that came with the car. Those have a projector lens which will properly place the beam and removing the waffles won't affect anything. If you removed the waffles and you don't have a stock xenon system then you have no projector lens either, and thats why you're not getting the proper beam pattern.. put the waffles back in, or get an aftermarket projector head light set...

Yeah..You gotta put those waffles back in. At least for your low beam and the very least...OR, get a projector headlight set online...
