, I was just wanting to know what bulbs (H4?, H7?, 501?) are in the front of my x-tech defender as I'm looking to upgrade to make the light more white/blueish and not the caddie power yellow so to speak?

hi Stu
I noticed you'd not been about - welcome back ! headlights H4, spots H7 PIAA UK HQ are just around the corner from you ... best bulbs, but stick with 55/60's for your headlights unless you have added a relay to your loom Tim @ Mobilecentre is due to announce some 90mm LED spots to replace the existing on the SVX front cluster |

That will be....  You never actually own a Defender. You merely look after it for the next generation.

We'll fitted the H4 bulbs and the new 15 led 501 side lights and look great
, but .............. Went to fit the H7 main beam/spot lights and there H9 bulbs so will have to look out for those now, so if you have a 2012 X-Tech the bulbs are H4 and H9 |

I was disappointed with the poor output of my original bulbs so have just put in a pair of Philips Extreme Vision +100 bulbs. For around 20 this is an amazingly good upgrade - bright white and a good range both on dip and main.
Another useful upgrade has been silicone wiper blades from Mudstuff - again Land-rover had somehow not quite perfected the factory originals! |
