The H7 LED bulbs I purchased were for my Low Beam lights in the Iveco
photos show the packaging , the comparison with existing H7 Halogen bulb and the truck photo shows Halogen compared to LED ,
the Low beam lights are in the bumper due to ADR , the main headlights are more than 1m off the ground so they can only be used for high beams, the other lights in the bumper are fog lights, still original bulbs, Ive never turned them on.
the ebay item was 221468624250
The high beams on the truck use H1 bulbs , and I chose a different design to the above , ebay item 111305791576 , these LED bulbs have a separate control box which fits onto the main headlight enclosure nicely.
I also have HID's in the unused compartments of the Main Headlights and I find the LED lighting to be almost as good as the HID but without the dipping warm up delay of HID's and in rain or on wet roads the LED's are better, I've yet to have a car flash at me even when I'm late at dipping (not that Im in traffic much at might)
the original Halogen Low beams in the Iveco were absolutely pathetic, the H7 LEDs are about 50% better and are still only just adequate, (but they are only in tiny 4" reflectors.) However the LED H1 Highbeams are 150% better than the Halogens and as good as the Trucklights were on the Defender.
I believe these H4 bulbs (or similar) would be OK for a Defender, low and high in the same bulb, part of the H4 specification is the distance between the mounting base and the filament , which would need to be the same on the LED bulb, providing there is room in the enclosure for the fan on the back of the bulb, should be OK, no where near as huge as the fan on the back of my H7's
Also note its perfectly legal to wire your lights so that the Low beam stays on whilst your on High beam, not a bad idea.

The configuration on that LED in question is similar to the Halogen with offset filaments ,
