    Ps. Regarding NZ law. Those halos are not considered DRL lights, they are part of the main headlight assembly which is dot approved. The halo can be on with the dip/main beam, as intended.
    Mate if you are 100% sure of this I will be a happy camper.

    These guys seem to have a range of 7-inch projector headlights which are styled to retain a classic look.

    I just bought a set of these for my EVLightweight

    the thing that attracted me to them is low beam is only 15W ,

    The Lightweight has 55/60 Halogens at the moment , I was not expecting to drive the thing at night so didn't worry about the headlights till now, but find myself driving it a lot more than anticipated .

    When they arrive I'll let you know how they compare to the LED Trucklites I had on my Defender, these are obviously a Chinese Trucklite copy at a fraction of the cost.

    If they dip right, that is a problem. And I'm not clear why a sharp cutoff means that dipping left is not an improvement, even if not a legal requirement. And are these lights ADR (or
    legal equivalent) compliant, and so marked?

    Most LEDs dip straight.

    The Dapper lights can be purchased as US or UK/AU, so I'm presuming that is referring to the dip.

    My $115 pair of LED 7" headlight arrived , (eBay link in post above) fitted to Electric Lightweight & tested , every bit as good as the $500 Trucklites I put on the Defender. Only issue is there is a slight Colour temperature difference between them , might explain why they are so cheap. So impressed I just bought a 2nd set , both as a spare and I might be able too mix & match to get an exact colour temperature pair , even though its only just discernible.

    I'll put a youtube together of testing them dachcam clips,

    I hate how they look though compared to the classic light, but 15W on Low beam & 45W on High beam , I'll take low energy consumption over looks.
