Hello everyone and welcome back to the channel.
In this video I am going to be carrying out a much needed refresh of the headlights on my E65 BMW 7 Series.
This was noted as an advisory on the last MOT so I am definitely going to need to do something about this problem.
As you will see, the lenses on each light are heavily crazed and have been polished a couple of times in the past which has gone some way towards helping. Sadly this has not been a permanent fix, so lens replacement is the next step.
As you will witness in the video, this is quite a lengthy process, certainly far more involved than a simple polish, but the result is certainly worth the efforts as you will see in the video.
Note that I am also including the complete headlight removal sequence in this video along with the necessary front bumper removal too. Far too often I see videos where people leave out ultimately really important steps which serves no purpose other than to confuse the viewers. Hopefully I helped with each step.
All of the parts required for this replacement can be found at very reasonable cost at the links below.

Awesome job Kev those look great! I've had to split my CLS lamps when I upgraded projectors to bi-xenon a few years ago but need to do it again now for exactly this reason!
Kev, you're absolute star! What an informative vid and brilliantly explained.
Very Nice lesson to keep in my mind. Good teaching. Thanks
Super. Hab ich bei meinem vor zwei Jahren auch gemacht. Bin sehr happy.
How much you charge to do this?
Dude you r amazing.
Where can buy this lens?
Hi, what kind of parking bulbs (angel eyes) do you have? They look brighter and crystal than my hella bulbs :/
Why not just sand and clear coat the lens rather than do this labor intensive project
Great job, congrats
