    Defender/County LED Position Lights

    Is anyone running a full set LED brake, tail, indicator and parker lights on an older Defender, County or 110? I like me some LEDs.

    These seem to always be up on ebay:

    I like the look of the clear lens type and I assume they are legal as long as they illuminate the correct colour.

    Not fussed about losing the trailer indicator light on the dash. I'm not sure it has ever worked any way.

    As long as you add a ballast, or change the flasher unit[appears to come with one anyway] (or aparently 'mod' the flasher unit. . was a thread on here about how to somwhere) theorheticly if the flasher unit is LED specific then the trailer light should still work the same.? maybe. . . . .

    though if your trailer is running LED's then it wont work. my Trailer has LED's and there isnt enough load to trigger the Trailer light. doesnt bother me though. as long as I know they work. which i check before each use. . . the orange ones wont stay on. . seem to flash around a lot

    I woudl be interested to see the quality if you get theese, been considering a set myself.

    Been eyeing off those for a while now...

    Our S2a project car (that has funding!) is in need of a new set of these lights - I'm tempted to take the existing ones off the 110 and put them on the S2a (not original, I know!), and get the LED ones for the 110.

    My trailer light flashes with my indicators all the time already, as I have incandescent bulb in my bullbar indicator lights. On the wish list is a set of LED lights to go in there as well...

    I have that exact set on my Puma. Works like a bomb, you don't even realise how bright they are until you start seeing the indicators reflected off the traffic at night.

    Very easy to install - 15 min tops.

    I have these on my 90 and 110.

    I have them in the clear lens and love them

    Been on my 110 for about 6 months but put a set on the 90 last month.



    Did not have the reversing light done but do now.

    And the 90

    Been running a set of the coloured LED ones since just before Xmas, certainly put the originals to shame.

    Thanks Reads and all others who replied. I think before the night is through, there'll be an extra $200 on my credit card

    I have looked at these as well. Think l will go clear.
    I reckon they are well priced.....

    And l like that one can retain the 'factory' look with this particular upgrade.

    Cheers,

    I must confess I have only changed my rear ones on both cars


    The front ones are the standard clear ones. Manly did this because can't see the front ones anyway due to the ARB Bull Bar. Saved a bit on cost :-)

    I've been using the RDX brand LED lights on my County. The best thing is they are totally sealed, so no more dusty, wet lenses.
