Phillips or Osram, I'm not sure which Land Rover use, but either of these brands will do, there is a mob on Ebay that get the factory globes(unmarked of coarse) in, but for the life of me I can't find them.

I priced some for our D4, ours is Bi-Xenon also, not cheap back when we first got the car, but they aren't too bad now, around the $150 mark now for a pair, LR want $300 for one.

Anyway go with whoever makes the factory globes.

After fitting a new headlight globe (2 hours getting ARB bar off :twisted: !!) the light will not work , is there a fuse that may have blown ? Trying to tack back now along the loom but no luck
Any thoughts

Sounds like a bad earth, your globe may be OK and it's a bad earth that is the issue, check the wiring and contacts.

There is a ballast / controller for the xenon on the underside of the headlight assembly which may have died. You could swap the one from the working headlight (globe as well) into the non working housing to check. Alternatively to could plug the working headlight assembly into the non working side to see if it is the wiring, fuse or earth.
