Reversing light to sidelight

I am thinking about putting some LED lights on the front of the defender, to match the ones on the back. The problem is, I can't find any front sidelights!
I spoke to a mate who said that these will fit, although I'm not completely sure.

Just wondering if anybody could give me some much needed advice on the matter!
Cheers

If they are intended for use as reversing lights they will be equivalent in light output to a 21-Watt conventional bulb. This makes it illegal to use them as a sidelight (but I think ok as a DRL provided they extinguish when you turn sidelights on).

PS. Try the mobile centre for proper LED sidelights!

Thanks for your help! I've already got some Wipac LED's fitted on the back, but I will definately be investing in some Mobile Centre ones for the front!
