Replacing the lens in the headlight of a Kirzhach VAZ 2110

The low and high beam headlights of domestic cars are not suitable for most motorists. In one case it is very dim, in the other the headlights shine very weakly. The last problem can be solved using the usual refinement method, which will take no more than five minutes, but the effect will be amazing.

To raise the high beam, you will need to thread small pieces of wire under the high beam as shown in the picture. The thicker it is, the higher the headlights will illuminate the main beam. An example of Korzhach headlights. It should be noted that the projector does not need to be disassembled for this major repair.

Fog lights and low beam;

Fog lights, low and high beam.

The second way is to bend your leg towards the far leg.

By the way, you can raise the low beam of the headlights either by the usual method of modification or by a number of measures. If you don’t need high beams in your car, you can make 2 low beam headlights.

You need to figure it out as soon as possible and find out the reasons why the headlights of the VAZ 2110 and 2114 shine poorly. Light on the street is the key to your well-being after sunset, and especially in winter, when it gets dark early (and dawn comes late). When adverse weather conditions in the form of rain or snow are added to the overall theme, the lack of lighting becomes dangerous in the truest sense of the word.

Rotating the pedals almost to the touch means jeopardizing the integrity of your iron horse: an undetected ditch can seriously damage the frame or even cause a skid, which can lead to injuries not only to your car, but also to those oncoming. / related.

Why the headlights of the VAZ 2110 and 2114 shine poorly, you need to look for the reasons until you are completely sure that this particular factor is interfering with proper operation. Simply replacing lamps with more powerful ones does not always solve the problem and can result in a waste of money.

Disassembling headlights

Before you start modifying the headlights in a VAZ 2110 car, you need to perform the following simple steps:

Their removal and disassembly. Using a utility knife, the glass is carefully removed from the headlight, and since it is secured using a special sealant, extreme caution is required so as not to break it. But if it breaks, then this is not a problem, you can buy it separately;
Next, the reflector is removed, unscrewing several bolts.
The next step is to remove all the wires from the back of the headlight and the spring from the place where the hydraulic corrector is inserted, and only then is it possible to remove the frame with the module itself from the headlight housing.
Remove the low beam module using a screwdriver and disassemble it completely.

Let's talk about remodeling

For those who decide to upgrade their lighting, products from the Kirzhach brand are the most suitable option. They allow several modification options, and there is also the possibility of installing xenon. Thanks to such modifications, the efficiency of the headlight and its light output increases. Having the skills to work with various plumbing tools, you can perform such alterations yourself.

In order to begin upgrading these products, you must first remove the headlights from the car. Next, you will need to completely disassemble the removed optical elements. First of all, you need to carefully separate the glass from the headlight housing. It is attached to the body using a special sealant

This work must be done carefully so as not to damage the glass, otherwise you will have to buy a new one

Finalization

In order to make the glow better, they are refined, which includes the following steps:

Modernization of curtains;
Changing the shape of the reflector.

These are the main stages that will ultimately lead to the complete modernization of Kirzhach headlights on a VAZ 2110 car. Now it is necessary to consider each individual stage.

Lens in the headlight of Kirzhach VAZ 2110

Shifting the lens closer to the reflector

The alteration begins with shifting the lens to reduce the area of the lens onto which the light flux falls. As a result, the curvature of the lens will also become smaller.

Disassembling the module and removing the lens from it. Carefully mark the cut at the intended location of the module. It is imperative to ensure that the lens curtain does not move from its place, but remains at a distance of 50 mm due to the focal length of the lens;
Cut off the lens at the marked location and attach it to the module. It is attached using the cuts that were made earlier, but the module itself will become shorter. The main thing in all this is that the closer the lens is, the more heating will occur due to its small area. In order not to miss the distance, the most optimal would be to approximate the lens by 10 mm.

Carrying out modernization of curtains

To carry out modernization and modification at the highest level, good and high-quality light distribution is done. The curtain is made straighter so that the light does not blind passing drivers driving in front of the VAZ 2110 into the rear mirrors. This type of curtain was developed according to the European GOST standard and is very successful.

To do this, you will need cardboard from which the curtain template will be made. The prepared cardboard template is transferred to a plate of metal material. To cut it out, metal scissors are used and the finished curtain is attached to the module. Also, if desired, it can be wrapped in foil to provide better light dispersion; it can also be used to install fog lights.

Under the lens on the module body, the edges are cut off. If they are cut correctly (no more than one millimeter along the ring), then the edge of the ring will not interfere with the correct flow of light.

Changing the reflector shape

If you want to change the width of the light output without changing its height, then you can change the shape of the reflectors yourself. By the way, on imported cars the reflectors have an oval shape, which is the best option.

Refining the headlights with a complete change in the shape of the reflector will help to significantly increase the width of the light beam. The reflector on a VAZ 2110 car has a standard round shape, and if you take it and press it to the floor, you can easily get an oval shape.

To reduce the cost of the reflector, it is made from ordinary sheet metal using an inexpensive cast method and therefore this material is very elastic and can be easily changed in shape.

Reflector in the headlight of Kirzhach VAZ 2110

To avoid cutting your hand, you should wear a glove. But you shouldn’t get too carried away, since there are certain standards for the width, which should be 93.2 mm in the flattened part. If this standard is not maintained, then the light beam will have a deformed feed shape. Therefore, when changing the shape of the reflector, efforts are applied little by little, controlling the change in size. So that when installing the reflector, all the fasteners coincide, they are also made oval in shape, as is the reflector fastening itself.

These changes, simple in their technology, will allow you to easily and without additional costs upgrade the Kirzhach headlights on a VAZ 2110. But the main thing is that all the changes made are not certified and fall entirely on the responsible shoulders of the driver.

After upgrading the headlights, it is imperative to adjust the VAZ 2110 headlights.

modification and tuning of headlights

The headlight unit can be dismantled for repair, replacement with a new one, or for tuning or modification. In this article we will talk about the removal and disassembly of a VAZ headlight of the tenth family, depending on its manufacturer (Bosch or Kirzhach).

The better the roadside is illuminated, the safer driving becomes. Foreign cars have an “adaptive lighting when turning” option for this case, but Russian cars still lag behind foreign cars. You can improve the illumination of the edge of the road by swapping the fog lights and direction indicators.

Competition for the most original tuning of head optics among the tenth family of VAZs. Requirements for participation: photos of headlights after tuning. Recruitment of applications from December 2 to December 15, 2013. inclusive.Voting from December 16 to December 31, 2013. inclusive.

To make your car attractive, replace the standard optics with alternative ones, for example, ProSport headlights. And if you want the car to be 100% unique, then do the ProSport headlight tuning yourself.

ProSport tuning is familiar to many; it is a wide range of parts not only for VAZ, but also for foreign cars. If we talk about ProSport headlights for the “ten”, then all the reviews fit into the “beautiful, but don’t shine” category. Let's try to figure out how to remake them with our own hands.

With the advent of LEDs and LED strips, the possibilities for car tuning have expanded significantly. A specific example is the installation of illumination of headlight lenses on a VAZ 2110.

Do they shine or glow? To search for the truth, I decided to conduct comprehensive tests (due to my capabilities), the main example of which was a set of one of the most popular and interesting (in my opinion) headlights with an integrated turn signal - ProSport (ProSport). Naturally, to complete the picture, in the article this optics will have many competitors, but first things first.

Have you ever noticed that the headlights of the VAZ 2110 “AvtoSvet” (Kirzhach) blind oncoming people at night, even without the collective farm xenon? In fact, this is another drawback of the “ten”, when the low and high beam beams practically coincide in height. Let's learn how to adjust the light beam of VAZ 2110 headlights with lenses.

Many car owners notice that their car headlights sweat. This is an unpleasant situation, for which there may be several reasons. We are trying to figure out why the headlight fogged up and what to do in this case.

The light of low and high beam headlights does not suit many drivers. In one case it is too dim, in another the headlights shine low. The last problem can be solved by a simple modification, which will take 5 minutes of time, but the effect will be amazing.

You have to adjust the headlight beam quite often, especially on station wagons, when the car trunk is heavily loaded and the light is directed into the eyes of oncoming drivers. If at one point you notice that the reflector has fallen and the light adjustment does not work, then you can try to repair the 2110 headlight yourself.

Imagine that you never use high beam headlights, then the useless parts of the headlight can be used as additional low beam. Let's figure out how to get rid of the high beams and install low beams in their place.

Covers for car headlights are also called cilia. Such headlight tuning can significantly embellish the appearance of the car, and with minimal investment of time and money. Let's learn how to make eyelashes for headlights with your own hands.

Adjusting the luminous flux

In order for the VAZ 2110 to be driven comfortably, all the rules of correct light supply must be followed so as not to blind oncoming drivers. There are special screws on the headlamp housing that are used to adjust the light supply.

When you turn the left screw, the angle of inclination of the optics changes vertically, respectively, turning the right screw changes the optics horizontally.

To correctly set the luminous flux, a horizontal line is drawn from the ground to the center of the headlights and another similar horizontal line is drawn 65 cm below it. After all the preparation has been completed, you can proceed directly to the adjustment:

the right headlight of the car is covered with cardboard paper and the low beam is turned on;
Using the adjusting screws, the center of the light beam of the left headlight is set, which is done in the same way with the right one.

How can you improve your headlights yourself?

Only when the luminous flux

adjusted, with slight modifications you can improve the headlight illumination on your own car without the help of others. First the headlight

is removed, and improvement is carried out in this order:

The protective glass is removed. To make it easier to remove the protection, it is recommended to heat the glass using a regular hair dryer for this purpose. A warm air flow will warm up the sealant, after which the panel, of course, can be easily separated from the headlight using a sharp knife;
carefully remove the reflective gasket;
When using the appropriate tool, it is necessary to move the lens approximately 15 mm towards the reflector or slightly shorten the modular ring on a lathe.

Such actions will help not only improve the light of the headlights, but also increase the luminous flux and make it much wider. Both adjusting the headlights and improving the luminous flux, as you can see, is a fairly common process that is available to every car enthusiast.

Alternative option

If the driver of a VAZ 2110 car seems that simple Kirzhach headlights do not provide good road lighting, then a bi-xenon module can be installed in them if desired.

The Kirzhach headlight module and the bi-xenon module are not very different, but this will not be an obstacle to replacing them.

Installing a bi-xenon module consists of several stages:

Removing the module seat in the headlight to install a new part in its place;
The next step is to connect the xenon lamp wiring to the standard wiring.

Installation of xenon lamps is very simple, because it occurs without changing the wiring. After the alteration, the lighting will be completely different from what it was before. After changing the modules, the ignition unit is attached to any point, there are many places for this, it is installed anywhere at the driver’s request.

Afterwards, everything is put back in its place and the glow at night is checked in practice.

After modernization, modifications and various alterations, at the request of the driver, the Kirzhach headlight must be mounted back on the VAZ 2110 using a sealant or a special construction sealant.

Let's talk about remodeling

This work must be done carefully so as not to damage the glass, otherwise you will have to buy a new one

Replacing the lens in the headlight of a Kirzhach VAZ 2110

So where did it all start, I had Bosch headlights, I didn’t like that they shine a little narrowly, install a kirzhach, it shines of course wider but still not ice, I wanted better, while reading this forum I came across information that you can screw Hella or OLLO xenon modules into the kirzhach , I began to look closely at these devices, as a result, the choice fell on OLLO modules with 4300K lamps; I didn’t want to, fundamentally I think this is the best option, I ordered them, at the time when I ordered I had not yet heard about the law prohibiting xenon, so there are no obstacles it was, then it was accepted, but since I had already ordered the modules, I had to scroll below; I’ll show you how I implemented it. So, let's begin. we take a Kirzhach headlight, to install the module you need to remove the frame with the low and high beam from the body, to do this you need to remove the glass from the headlight, and as you know on the Kirzhach, the glass is attached to the body with a sealant, this sealant must be carefully cut off, I really don’t recommend leaving uncut areas with sealant, so one glass has died, so we take the tool

Xenon everyone, let's go! We love the pictures, don’t be shy, they’re all clickable!

Owners of Kirzhachev headlights suffer greatly from virtually absent headlight light. There is only one way out - to install xenon, but in the standard lens it is not fully implemented in the matte reflector and turns into a headache for passing drivers - the halogen daw successfully blinds.

I offer the cheapest modification option, which consists of replacing the lenses with Chinese ones, specially designed for a xenon light source.

So, there are dozens of headlight conversions using Morimoto Mini H1 lenses.

Carefully peel off the glass and remove the decorative mask. We get this picture:

Comparison of standard lenses and Morimoto Mini H1

In the modification I use M3x50 screws, nuts with a nylon insert and enlarged M3 washers. I move the lens 35mm from the plane of the reflector bracket:

The screws are adjusted and ready for adjustment:

General plan of the new lens in the headlight:

Exposed and tightened lens:

I run the electrics from below the headlights to make the ignition units less visible. At the same time, replacing the lamp will not be difficult:

Then I simply glue the headlight together with sealant, put in the clamps and secure it with paper tape just in case.

General view of the resulting headlight. As you can see, the lens turned out to be very recessed (strange, but this is exactly how it was on the original), for the future it is clear that it can be safely extended to 45mm: “Grains of sand” are glass defects from time to time. So far they are not critical and there is no need to polish the headlights.

Well, as usual, the result. General view of the car with low beams on:

Projection of the neighbor on the wall. Xenon 4300K:

Long range - xenon + halogen H1 55W:

The alteration is not complicated, the adjustment of the near beam is made to the far beam, which in the end turns out to be enchanting, but what’s strange is that in the Kirzhach both the high beam reflector is matte, and the reflective halogen high beam fades against the background of the lensed xenon.

“Angel Eyes” - a new type of tuning

Installing “angel eyes” on a car yourself is not at all difficult. There are several options for this procedure:

buy finished products;
make them yourself using LED strip;
make it yourself using a transparent tube.

As practice shows, it is much better to make “angel eyes” yourself, since stores sell very low-quality and short-lived products. You can buy a ready-made LED strip and glue it to the inside of the optics with special glue or sealant. But it will still be more effective and brighter if you use an LED ring made of a plastic tube.

The work in this case consists of the following stages:

To begin with, the plastic tube is heated using a hair dryer. This must be done so that it bends well. However, you also need to understand that if the product is overheated, it will become deformed.
After this, use pliers to bend the tube around the can, so you get an even circle.
When the part has cooled, the edges are sawed off.
Resistors and LEDs are assembled using the same scheme. It is important to sand the ends thoroughly.
Then, using a hacksaw, notches are made around the perimeter at approximately a distance of 2-2.5 mm. The ends are covered with foil and a special tube.
Next, the made ring is attached with glue around the optic lens. It is important that the notches are on the inside.

If you clearly follow the instructions and correctly carry out all stages of the work, the updated headlight will have a very presentable appearance and will be able to last about 7 years without replacement.

Kirzhach headlights for VAZ 2110

Model features
Headlight modernization

Replacing headlights for a VAZ 2110 is a relatively common occurrence. This is usually due to one of the following reasons:

mechanical damage to headlights;
breakdown of old lighting system components;
desire to change the appearance of the car.

Headlight for the VAZ 2110
The choice of headlights for the VAZ 2110 is small - there are 2 types of lighting system components for it:

components from the German company Bosch;
components from the Russian one in the city of Kirzhach (“the popular” name is simply Kirzhach).

It would seem that in terms of quality comparison, the domestic analogue should lose to the German one. However, due to its features, many car enthusiasts, despite the price, choose “Kirzhach” for their 2110 car model.

The lighting complex from the Russian company consists of:

glass;
reflector;
hydrocorrector;
lenses;
curtains;
lamps;
various fasteners (screws, springs for hydraulic corrector).

Headlight lighting “Kirzhach”

Reflector

If your glasses are fine, a loose reflector may be causing the dim light. No matter how powerful a lamp you screw into the projector, you will not get the light brightness you want. In most foreign cars, in this case, you will have to completely change the headlight; On a VAZ you can only replace the reflector. Moreover, the procedure is very simple:

The optical group is disassembled with the battery disconnected;
The glass is removed from it. It is placed on a sealant, which is softened when heated with a construction hairdryer. The glass is then pushed and carefully removed;
One light bulb is unscrewed;
The shabby reflector is disassembled, a new one is installed, and the headlight is reassembled in the reverse order.

Before installing the glass, do not forget to clean both it and the body of the old sealant and degrease it before applying a new layer.

Voltage problems: Particularly common in cars with halogen lamps. No voltage may be caused by a faulty alternator or oxidation/broken contact. Normal light is emitted at a voltage of 13.8-14.2V, the same should be at the ends of a working lamp. No more than 0.2-0.3 V drop on it is allowed at a rotation speed of 2000 rpm.

A lower voltage indicates poor contact in the circuit. It is necessary to identify and eliminate the defect; Installing more powerful lamps before repair is strictly prohibited - this can lead to overheating and even fire of the faulty contact point.

Model features

Experts assessed possible headlight options for VAZ according to several parameters:

ensuring excellent visibility at night. At the same time, the light should not blind oncoming drivers. In this parameter, both Kirzhach and Bosch are approximately the same;
features of reflectors. The German analogue of the headlight has reflectors for low and high beam, while the domestic one has a lens for low beam and a reflector for high beam. This ensured almost the same level of illumination during the tests. The lens, which is installed in the headlights of the Russian manufacturer, provides better brightness (helps create clear lines of light, and is also suitable for installing xenon optics). In addition, some drivers note that the illumination is not very high-quality when the low-beam headlights are on; the product, due to the reduced lighting area, does not have such a drawback.

Differences between the Kirzhach headlights

Another feature of the Kirzhach headlight is that it can be easily bought in city stores, because the sales market for such headlights is in Russia. This and other features of the headlight make it more attractive to VAZ 2110 drivers and determine a slightly higher price for components from this company.

Sometimes it happens that, having purchased new headlights from a Russian one for your VAZ, you notice that their glow is not very good. Inexperienced drivers may attribute this to a defect or poor quality of the purchased product.

However, most often the problem is in the usual setting of the headlights. It is advisable to adjust the new lighting components that you install in place of the optics you just removed.

To do this, you will need, in addition to the skill of a draftsman, a flat surface. But if you do not have the necessary skills and time, entrust the adjustment of the Kirzhach headlights to specialists.

The most common cause of road accidents is poor visibility. Therefore, there is no need to explain why your headlights should be well adjusted. On foreign cars you can find adaptive light - this is when the headlights direct light depending on the angle of the car, load and other parameters.

The easiest way to adjust the headlights is at a service station. But we do everything with our own hands and don’t want to give away extra money. Therefore, in this article I will tell you how to adjust the headlights on a VAZ 2110. Before starting the adjustment, in order to avoid errors, you should check several things, namely:

Check the headlights for dirt.
Inspect the headlights for damage.
Check tire pressure.
You should be driving at a weight that is approximately equal to yours.

We make the adjustment on a completely level place. In this case, there should be a wall opposite that stands at 90° to the site.
The distance from the wall to the car is 5 m.
Draw this design on the wall with chalk. Or draw this image on sheets of paper and stick them on the wall.

We draw the first line parallel to the platform, the distance from the platform to the line should be equal to the distance from the platform to the top of the headlights.
We draw the second line parallel to the previous one, 7.5 cm lower.
We draw 2 lines, conditionally running along the center of the headlights. Let's call these lines A and B. They are parallel to each other and perpendicular to lines 1 and 2. Let's call their intersection points with line 2 E. The distance between these points is 936 mm.
If your VAZ 2110 has a hydraulic corrector, then set it to position 1 and turn on the low beam headlights.
Cover one of the headlights with something light-proof (cloth)
We achieve the glow of the headlight beam along line 2. (Using the adjusting screw at the back of the headlight)
Using the second screw, we achieve alignment of the break point of the light in the vertical boundary of the center of the headlights.
Now cover this headlight with a cloth and adjust the second one in the same way as the first.

We see that there is nothing complicated and it doesn’t take long. But you will be sure that in the dark you will clearly see the road surface and will not blind oncoming drivers.

Adjusting VAZ 2110 headlights with your own hands.

Headlight modernization

Despite the slightly higher performance indicators for the 2110 model, many car enthusiasts want to improve its equipment. The improvement requires disassembling the headlights, which occurs as follows:

Remove the glass from the headlight, which is attached using sealant. Use the utility knife;
remove the reflector. To do this you will have to unscrew a few bolts;
on the back side of the headlight, remove all the wires, as well as the spring that secures the hydraulic corrector;
remove the module from the headlight by pulling it towards you.

The most popular ways to improve headlights on a VAZ 2110 are:

shifting the lens closer to the reflector. This is done to reduce the area of the lens on which the light stream is located, which avoids dazzling drivers who are driving in front (through their rear-view windows);
modernization of curtains. Provides better light distribution;
changing the shape of the reflector. This is done to change the width of the light stream. Since the reflector is made of sheet metal, it can easily be given, for example, an oval shape;
adjusting the light flow. It can be done by tightening several screws on the headlight housing, which will change the angle of inclination of the optics of your car and its horizontal and vertical location.

Kirzhach headlights allow the installation of a bi-xenon module inside them, which enhances the power of the luminous flux. The bi-xenon module and the Kirzhach module are practically no different from each other, which makes them easy to replace.

Tuning headlights for VAZ 2110

It happens as follows:

the module is removed from its seat according to the algorithm described above;
The wiring of the xenon bulbs is connected to the wiring of the car.

To change the lamps in the Kirzhach headlight, you do not need to buy new wiring, and after replacing the module, the ignition unit can be attached to any convenient place.

Installing xenon lamps will make the lighting brighter. After assembly, it is advisable to immediately check the lighting in the VAZ 2110 to ensure that the wires are connected correctly.

➤ Adjusting headlights on the Lada Granta - description of the process

The factory adjustment of the headlights on the Lada Granta is not ideal; owners often independently adjust the optics to “their needs.”

The adjustment process is not complicated, every driver can do it. If you don't have time, contact the service center for assistance.

Why does the headlight adjustment go wrong?

Poor quality assembly of components, insufficient fixation with fasteners;

Manufacturing defect;
Due to damage, the headlight range control does not work;
Violation of operating conditions;
Inconsistency in temperature conditions, as a result of which the reflector, base, and mounting socket are destroyed and deformed;
Negative consequences of an accident, impact, collision;
Wear of springs, front / rear struts, ground clearance decreases, the car body leans forward.

The given list of reasons why headlight adjustment is impossible is exhaustive.

Procedure for adjusting the headlights of a Lada Granta with your own hands

Tool preparation: screwdriver, hexagon.

Installation of the machine within the perimeter of the repair area, on a flat platform.
Checking the tire pressure, the presence of a spare tire in the trunk, the weight of the load on the driver's seat is 75.0 kg.
Adjustment / correction of the light beam at a distance of no more than 3.0 meters from the wall.
Check the illumination angle of each headlight one by one.
Completion of work, testing for serviceability and accuracy of lighting.

The lighting system on the Lada Granta (liftback) is completely identical to that of Kalina, Priora, Vesta. The turn signal, high beam, and daytime running lights (hereinafter referred to as DRLs) are located together in one module.

Each lamp is placed in a separate socket with the possibility of autonomous adjustment using a hydraulic cylinder. The headlights are adjusted using two hexagonal screws:

the top one is responsible for the horizontal position of the light beam,
bottom for vertical.

Preparation and adjustment of headlights in accordance with GOST

Adjustment scheme

We first check the tire pressure, place a load (75.0 kg) on the front seat, squeeze the parking brake lever;
On the wall (obstacle) we draw a horizontal line at a distance of 550 mm. from the earth. This will be the level of visibility of the driver’s pupils at a distance of three meters from the front bumper;
We draw a line perpendicularly passing through the center of the light beam for each of the headlights: line 1 and 2.
A vertical line is drawn down the center.

Adjusting and adjusting the headlight manually

We measure the distance of lines 1 and 2, they should be equal. For the objectivity of the data, let’s rock the side of the car and check the accuracy of the beam accuracy restoration, simulating a road bump;
Using the hydraulic corrector, we complete the headlight height adjustment. Initially, set the lever to position “0”. Experts recommend setting up each of the headlights separately, after covering the inactive one with an opaque material;
Adjusting the low beam headlights on the Lada Granta is considered complete when the light spots on the wall completely coincide with the horizontal line;
If necessary, repeat the setup process again.

We improve the quality of work done

In order to increase the efficiency of roadway lighting, we check body elements for defects, damage, and deformation. By ignoring the curvatures on the body, it is impossible to achieve maximum concentration of the light beam.

We check the integrity of the headlight glass and the tightness of the sealing elements. There is dust and dirt inside the optics module - a sign of poor sealing. Replace the rubber seal, update the silicone sealant.

Long-term operation of the machine on rough terrain or unpaved surfaces leads to damage and scratches on the optics. It is not at all necessary to change the headlights; it is enough to carefully polish them with special means.

If the reflector or mirror surface is damaged, unconditional replacement of the optics. Such a defect cannot be restored.

Installation of lamps strictly in accordance with catalog articles. Purchasing components other than factory ones does not guarantee the quality of lighting or service life.

Cashback 20% of the cost of the repair kit to the card within 24 hours, for all members of the Drive2.RU community, after publishing a review!

Repair kit for replacing standard lenses with Hella Standard for a VAZ 2110 car. The repair kit is designed to replace standard lenses with modern bi-xenon lenses Hella Standard. You can do the replacement yourself by removing the headlight and opening the glass, or you can contact a car lighting studio or a headlight retrofit specialist with this repair kit (see the list of installers in your city in the website menu).

Why is it profitable to purchase a repair kit from us? - the price of new original headlights is 5-10 times higher than the cost of a repair kit - non-original headlights have very low quality light - we have the lowest prices in Russia, our own production base for frames, direct supplies of bi-xenon lenses from the manufacturer's plant

Compatibility: VAZ 2110

Why do standard headlights lose brightness over time? The reflector coating of standard halogen or xenon lenses, even on premium cars, fades over time and light is lost in the lens reflectors, so the lens module itself has to be replaced. The most optimal solution is to replace the standard modules with Hella Standard bi-xenon lenses using adapter frames for Hella Standard.

How to move the lens?

This operation is carried out to move the lens to reduce its area that receives illumination from the lamp. This achieves a decrease in the curvature of the lens. This can be done this way:

It is necessary to completely disassemble the module and remove the lenses from it. Cuttings must be made at the proposed new location for installing the module. At this time, it is necessary to carefully monitor the position of the curtain; it should always be at a distance of 50 mm;
In the marked place, you need to saw off the module and strengthen the lens; for this, previously made cuts are used, and the module becomes somewhat shorter. It is important to take this point into account; the lens heats up, so the optimal approximation size will be 10 mm.

Xenon on a VAZ 2110: do-it-yourself installation in a standard headlight

It is no secret that the quality of vehicle lighting has a direct impact on the level of safety. Both for the motorist and his passengers, and for other sections of the road.

Many believe that xenon on the VAZ 2110 is installed illegally, and any inspector can fine you a tidy sum of money. Today we will talk about the legality of xenon and the features of its installation on the domestic “ten”.

Question of law

Legal equipment

Therefore, to install xenon as fog lights and main headlights, you will need to purchase a set of legal equipment. There must be an inscription in the form of the letter D on the headlight glass. It indicates that bi-xenon lights are connected to these headlights. Consequently, everything is legal, and therefore there is no need to fear the traffic police post.

If you have xenons but have an H on your headlight glass, you will have problems. This is because such an inscription indicates that halogen lamps must be located under the glass.

Glass

The simplest reasons are most likely.

Dirty headlights reduce illumination by 50%. Cleaning them with a dry cloth is not a good idea. This approach will also scratch the glass, which will make their dim glow permanent over time. If you don't want to wash your headlights by hand regularly, use a washing machine. For ten, by the way, the unity of the Volga is ideal. Moreover, the installation is quite simple and can be done independently.

The glass could break. If you notice a crack in the surface, you will need to remove the projector and replace it with a new one.

If your car is already running, the glass may become dull over time. Being in the first rows when driving, dust, grains of sand and small debris falling on the headlight at speed leave microscopic scratches on the glass. Most of them are so small that they cannot even be visualized, but at the same time they refract and scatter light like a prism. The glass will need to be replaced; and so that the next replacement can go as far as possible, you can cover it with a protective film on top.

Benefits and Potential Problems

Bi-xenon does an excellent job of illuminating the roadway and adjacent areas. This applies to both headlights and fog lights. A characteristic feature of xenon is that it emits bright white light with a blue tint.

Xenon in headlights and PTF

Fog lights from Bosch, which are installed on the VAZ 2110, do not have lenses. Instead, reflectors are provided here. This makes the beam of light not low enough.

Therefore, when installing xenon, it is very important to install focusing lenses so that the bi-xenon behaves appropriately. That is, it illuminated the road efficiently and did not blind oncoming cars.

Problems with the generator - the light dims due to lack of voltage

Many car owners drive with poor lighting and do not even suspect that the culprit is not the lamps or the headlights themselves, but the electrical circuit in the car. The first step is to check the generator, which produces a certain voltage during the trip and is the main source of electricity after the engine has been started. If the generator does not work well and does not produce the required voltage, the following troubles are possible:

all elements of electricity consumption will not work very well, many may not turn on at all due to the lack of normal network operating conditions in the car;
instead of the required 12V, 8-9V is supplied to the headlights at a constant network load, this can be checked by turning on the headlights with the engine off (if the light is normal, the generator is to blame);
Also, if the generator malfunctions, fuel consumption increases, since the computer increases engine speed in order to obtain a more or less normal voltage in the network;
Also, the poor quality of the generator is due to the fact that when you press the gas pedal, all lighting elements, as well as fans and other electrical appliances, begin to work better.

If your car has a non-original generator, the most logical solution would be to install a factory version of this device. Often, for various modifications, the plant offers a more powerful version of the generator. This is an excellent solution, but remember that it may somewhat spoil the impression of the machine. In particular, fuel consumption may increase. Otherwise, only native generators can seriously change the situation.

Removal

Set

Of course, without dismantling the old headlights it will be impossible to install xenon devices. Dismantling is performed as follows.

The vehicle is deprived of power by removing the negative terminal from the battery.
The connectors going to the headlights are disconnected. All without exception.
The fasteners are removed from the top mount. The bolts are located there.
The radiator grille is dismantled.
The bolt that holds the headlight unit in its lower part is removed. He's there alone.
Next, pry up the cover using a flat-head screwdriver and remove it.
Now take a 10 mm wrench and use it to remove the fixing nut to the bracket.
All that remains is to remove the headlight unit.
Do not forget to pry the hydraulic correction cylinder retainer using the same flat-head screwdriver to remove the unit.
The direction indicators are removed. To do this, simply unscrew a couple of bolts.

Module installation

If you want the installation of xenon on a VAZ 2110 to be carried out within the law, buy a new approved module.

Kirzhach in analysis

Just be sure to take into account the fact that the “Bavarian” Hella Lens G2 . This is a second generation module with wider lenses. The first generation is not suitable for us.

Of course, the cars are structurally different, so the installation will have to be slightly adjusted.

To get started, purchase the necessary materials. Just two pieces:

Ignitor;
Ignition unit;
Hella lenses;
Bi-xenon lights.

If you take used lenses rather than new ones, purchasing the entire set will cost you about 3.5 thousand rubles. Since you will install them yourself, there should be no additional financial costs.

The revision process looks like this.

Measure the size of the seat where the standard Kirzhach module is mounted. Now the Hella module will be located there. The place should be prepared in advance.
The standard wiring is connected to the wiring from the bi-xenon optics. There are no problems here, since everything matches perfectly.
Now the new bi-xenon module is put in place.
You can fix the ignition unit in any way convenient for you, since there is more than enough space for installation in the VAZ 2110.

What can be added to the factory assembly

In general, the VAZ 2112 is a comfortable car that combines all the necessary qualities and functions for convenient and comfortable trips.

But who said that we can limit ourselves to this? In addition, an avid car enthusiast will always find something to improve. In this case, for example, tuning the VAZ 2112 engine will come in handy (who doesn’t like driving fast).

External design of the car. To improve it, experts use various “tricks” that allow them to create a completely new vision;
Increasing the aerodynamic performance of the car by installing a rear spoiler;
Installing beautiful lighting. Most often it is installed over the entire area of the bottom, because the clearance of the twelfth model is very wide;
Replacing regular seats with sports analogues;
Despite the fact that the twelfth model handles very well, if desired, you can achieve even greater progress by replacing the standard steering wheel with a more advanced one (for example, with power steering and an updated steering mechanism);
Replacing the brake system (if the car is undergoing a modernization process, then bleeding the brake system is simply necessary).

Installation in a standard headlight unit

Preparing the wiring

This can be done by following a certain sequence of actions:

The first step is to disconnect the negative cable from the battery;
Prepare the wiring. The plus goes to a yellow wire, the minus goes to a brown wire. Two minuses and the same number of pluses are crimped one by one, after which they must be carefully insulated;
Process the holes for the lamps with a simple handy tool - a file. Check periodically to see if the bulbs are included. If you overdo it with sharpening, it will be more difficult to return the sawn material to its place;
Now install bi-xenon optics;
The wiring from the light bulbs is pulled through the protective cover. You will have to drill a hole first. Therefore, having a drill at hand is a must;
After installing the headlight in the base, fix it. Just don’t get too clever with polarity;
Along with the lamp, instructions for connecting the ignition unit are provided. Follow it, there is nothing complicated in this scheme;
Replace the headlights;
Connect the negative terminal back to the battery;
If the headlights function and turn on as expected, then the work can be considered completed early. There remains the last, but very important stage - adjustment.

As you can see, xenon on a VAZ 2110 is quite real. But to avoid any problems with the law, we advise you to spend a little more money and purchase a full-fledged legal module rather than risk driving past every traffic police post.

Headlight lenses are faded - solves the problem by polishing or replacing

Dull headlight lenses are one of the serious problems for motorists. Yellow glass or a dark inner side are troubles that indicate a malfunction of the optics mechanism itself or a too long service life. Yellowed and scratched glass can be polished if it is smooth using the following options:

buy a special polish for car glass, do not skimp on this product, otherwise it will not help remove microcracks and various other minor problems;
prepare the headlight in a garage or other dry place for polishing, wash it and wipe it dry (it is not necessary to remove the optical device);
Next, apply the required amount of polishing paste to the glass and rub it with a soft cloth over the entire surface; you can first polish a small area;
then rub the polish into the glass surface with quick circular movements and watch for changes in the appearance of the headlight; the procedure can take quite a long time.
