    Ultraflex 4x4 - Headlight Conversion

    Afternoon chaps!

    Has anyone bought and installed these?:

    Pair 7'' 130W Round LED Headlights DRL + TURN For Landrover Discovery Defender | eBay

    They look pretty ugly, but still interested in their performance, if anyone has some experience.

    Cheers,
    Cam

    I was asked to find these lights by a few local 4x4 clubs searching for better lights that are Legal in NSW , VIC and QLD. After studying ARD46/00 and many exhaustive discussions with Chinese Manufacturing companies over several months I was able to Locate, modify and certify these lights for Australian useage.
    Genuinely Legal

    Certified by SAE, DOT, and E Mark and I have the proof of certification.

    LEGAL in ALL Australian States under:

    ADR 46/00 section 7.8
    Vehicle Standard (Australian Design Rule 46/00 - Headlamps) 2006
    The guy has done his research. I'd be asking for the proof of certification.

    Other than that, if you want to compare them to incandescent, the 130W claim is meaningless. Being LED, I reckon it draws way much less. Lumens is a more accurate comparison.

    If they are indeed certified for use in Australia, I'd be prepared to give them a go, if not for the $440 asking price.
    I thing I'll stick to the 55/60 H4.

    This same guy is going around telling folk he designed and builds these lights! He is a bit unhinged and not a very nice person at all, and i have the screen shots to prove it.

    Why would you bother when you can buy a good priced Narva kit to convert any H4 system ?

    Here is a thread I started not long ago..spoke to the guy and the lights are marked with relevant approval. I asked him a lot of questions and did research and was satisfied that they are very good lights and approved in Qld.

    LED Headlights

    Cheers

    Damned good point. I'll let you know when I think of an answer.
    This may take some time.


    These are 19200 lumen a 6000k:

    There are quite a few threads on these LED bulb replacements in stock halogen reflectors. Dont generally fit and crap overall. The Ultraflex are tbe genuine article for an upgrade.

    So far I have discovered

    3200k - halogen
    4200k - xenon/HID
    6000k - daylight


    Oh, and a little note from Hella:
    Legal Notes
    LED Retrofit lamps do not comply with the ECE standard. They
    may only be used for offroad applications or in the vehicle
    interior. Any use on public roads will invalidate your operating
    permit and insurance cover.
