Disassembling a headlamp for repair or LED tuning, or any modification of your choice, is not so difficult as it seems at first glance. To do this, you do not need to have special skills, because even people who have never done this can do it in 15-20 minutes

Necessary

Medium-sized cardboard box, building hair dryer, screwdriver, gloves

Instructions

Step 1

We take the box and put the headlight in it. We make a hole in the lower corner of the box, so large that the barrel of a construction hair dryer fits there. Inside the box we put a partition made of the same cardboard between the hair dryer and the headlamp so that the hot air from the hair dryer does not get directly onto the optics, because you can ruin the headlight. We close the box with tape.

Step 2

We turn on the hairdryer at about 280 degrees and wait 15 minutes, which is quite enough. Turn off the hair dryer. We take out the headlight from the box (put on gloves first). We take a screwdriver and unscrew all the screws that hold both parts of the headlight (instead of screws, there may be brackets that can be easily removed with a minus screwdriver).

Step 3

After we put everything aside, we take the headlight, it is advisable to start with an acute angle of the headlight (depending on the car model) and open it. (if the headlamp does not lend itself to disclosure, do not tear yourself and do not break the headlamp, but once again carefully check whether you have removed all the fasteners or unscrewed).
