We make optics. — Toyota Corolla Runx, 1.5 liter, 2003

It was like this))) One fine day, the fasteners for adjusting the direction of light broke (((It was decided to open the optics (((For one and insert the LEDs,

Since you can’t just remove the optics, you had to remove the bumper. It’s just that you can’t take off the optics differently, I was pleased that he was happy to quickly remove it)))
So the optics were removed. We begin the operation to open the optics (sorry for the photo left)

we begin to try on and cut out the desired length of the LED strip (as it turned out later, they have three LEDs, if you cut off the wrong number, then the last one or two will not burn (((tested on yourself) Later we paste them and wait for the glue to dry.

Fitting))) I wonder what happens)))
Then we paste and assemble the optics.

Well, everything is ready)) After that, I went to the city and on the way stopped at a gas station, only paid for gasoline, approached the car, a guy drove up on a new chord around my car, went back to the front, looked at the headlights (they were on) and began to ask what Yes, how))) I was pleasantly surprised and pleased))) Yes, now in the evening you are driving around the city at crossroads, pedestrians walk and show each other (look at his eyes)) I think it was not in vain that he started all this, and even more so made it a reality) ))

hello =))) basically alive =)))
on one spotlight from the very beginning the glitch was on three diodes and remained ...
you're right about the stabilizers.

six months have passed. How are your headlight diodes?

ATP))) I will look in stores)))

DIMA PROJECT 24.01.22

for diodes, the current must be stable, and in the car's on-board network, the voltage jumps from 12.6 to 14.2 and the current on the diodes, too, respectively. need a stabilizer
for example here

If they fail, I will turn it off or take it apart and change it. What stabilizers are you talking about? If I buy something, I'll solder it before it's too late

DIMA PROJECT 24.01.22

you shouldn't have stuck those tapes inside the headlight. after a while, some diodes will start to fail, 3 each. flicker at first and then go out completely. and how will you then take out the tape? you have to disassemble the headlights. Diodes in automotive wiring must be implemented using a current stabilizer, otherwise they do not live long.

It looks great, but the fact that they will die after a while is for sure! So you have to tinker)

evgen-runx 24.01.22

what can you do))) Beauty requires sacrifice)))

And when you collected, did you also warm up the headlight?
I was just told that during disassembly and assembly it is necessary to warm them up ...

e
evgen-runx 24.01.22

A kettle of water with kepetil and watered the pos tipeno on the places where it was glued with sealant, after which it carefully opened the optics in places, it was necessary to cut the sealant with a clerical knife

I
Ivanovnvkz 24.01.22

Can you tell me how you opened the headlights?
everyone opens up differently!
I wonder how you did!

e
evgen-runx 24.01.22

Yes, I had to warm up and clean out the old sealant, it interferes with putting it back tightly. Since I had little time to collect optics, I did it in haste. In the winter I will open again.

Thank you)))) In the near future, more cilia will appear on them)))

All stock.

e
evgen-runx 24.01.22

thanks for the advice =)))
also still working =))

if they die. Take a tape with flat diodes. She should not die, I have been shining for half a year already.

e
evgen-runx 24.01.22

yeah =)))

Did you connect the tape to the dimensions?
