General Procedures All vehicles NOTE:The templates are different for LHD and RHD vehicles. The templates are different for the left and right-hand headlamps. | -
Print out the corresponding templates at the end of these work instructions. | | -
Measure dimension X on the printout of the template. | | -
Calculate the enlargement/reduction factor Y for the photocopier using the following formula: Y=Z÷X×100. - X = measurement on the printout of the template in mm
- Y = enlargement/reduction factor in %
- Z = original dimension in mm = 25
| | -
Enlarge/reduce the printout with a photocopier by the calculated percentage. - Compare dimension X on the photocopy with the original dimension.

CAUTION:Do not damage the headlamp lens. Copy the outline of the template with a suitable pen onto the headlamp lens. | | -
CAUTION:Use heat-resistant film which does not cause heat accumulation in the headlamp. NOTE:Make sure that the marked area is not exceeded. Mask the marked area with opaque film. | | -
Repeat steps 10 to 12 for the headlamp on the other side. | CAUTION:Do not use sharp-edged tools when removing the film in order to prevent damage to the lens. Remove adhesive residues with a suitable solvent. | -
