Yes, although they obviously can't completely compensate for the poor beam pattern of the OE lenses.

For a completely un-scientific comparison test (on a Freelander), take a look HERE

I like the completely un-scientific approasch, bit like real life

Good comparision

Ordered a set of these at lunch; and just got the email that they've already shipped!

Cheers,

2015 Defender 90 Puma 2.2 CSW Corris Grey

I have the Philips bulbs in mine and in the last week, both low beams have blown

Has anyone else had this problem? They are only about 18months old...

P.s their in a Puma rather than the TD5

Hello,

I have to change headlights on my 02 TD5 as MOT time is approaching. Looking to get Wipac Crystal ones for continental use. After reading all those posts about Wipac Crystal headlights now I am realy confused - which ones are suitable (LHD, RHD, with or without pilot light,...?).

Could anyone recommend good source to get them?

Thank you very much!
