All I need is to be able to find matching round LED reverse lamps...

For replacement round LED reverse lamp try here https://www.firstfour.co.uk/item/217...t-for-defender

Thanks - as far as I can tell those sit on plinths and would protrude further than the other ones I posted....

I'm surprised there are no 'matching' reverse lights from wipac (they do sell the NAS style also).

Hi Vlad,

S6061LED, S6060LED or S6062LED are the same size as the factory parts that they replace (73mm). Unlike the NAS spec lights they do not require a plinth.

Assuming that you currently have the round versions and not the rectangular ones, the NAS spec reversing light and rear (red) fog light, are the same size (95mm) as the factory items that they replace. They fit straight into the factory plinth without modification.

Wipac make all of the above items. Wipac also make the OEM lights on the current defenders.

FWIW, Bizarrely I had to reverse the wiring on the 73mm lights because they didn't work when I plugged them in.

Hope that helps.

reversing the wires - yeah LED are polar - will only work one way.

My current reverse light is rectangular but I want a round one (two actually).

Sorry for ending up a bit OT on this but in for a penny, in for a pound...

Although some lights have additional circuitry so that they work either way. Not these ones though :o

95mm reversing light is part number S6080LED and the plinth is AMR3850.
Two reversing lights - like this? (all 95mm/NAS on the rear)

While I'm at it, here's the front with the 73mm LEDs:

Are the rear WIPAC ones designed to use a plinth or not (the brake/tail and indicator ones I mean) ?

All of the 95mm/NAS lights require a plinth.
None of the 73mm lights require a plinth.

Thanks. Will be ordering mine tomorrow.
If you put LED's on the front as well as the back do you still need to do the mod on the flasher relay?

Yes, the front and/or the back will require the mod or a new LED can.

Only the side lights dont require it as they don't place enough load on the system to trigger the 'bulb failed' fast flash.

Or so I reckon.

Yep, that's right. Sensitivity varies, but changing a 5W bulb to a ~1.2W LED is usually safe - and certainly safe if you have an extra indicator on the bullbar.

I like those WIPAC ones, they weren't around when I did mine. I have to admit, I just threw LED bulbs in the front indicators on the body… They don't count if you have indicators in the bullbar!
