replacing headlights on my N reg defender 90
« on: June 29, 2008, 12:37:42 »
when the dipped light died i went to my local land rover garage, and asked for a new bulb for my defender. she asked what reg it is, and i answered, and she handed over what she said was the correct bulb.well i went to fit it today and found that it isnt the correct bulb as it is a sealed unit.
so ive decided to upgrade the whole headlight system, as frankly the current bulbs are pants.
can anyone recomend a good place to buy brighter bulbs, that require to modifications to the rest of the system.

cheers

I've fitted them to my 90 too.  I also used some "ice white" bulbs. What a difference!

I've got Wipac clear lens jobs on my Range Rover, very good indeed, and about £35 I think.
