I hate to say it, but if you look in your handbook there is a section devoted to the replacement of all vehicle bulbs. Smile

In fact I read that section and it was very useful Thumbs Up
but it doesn't say how can you change the bulb in the round lamp Question


Does in mine but it is older than yours.
Thin blade under the edge of the fitting to pop out the complete light assembly.

hi they look fine, if like me you were looking for a led similar to a side light, ie it will not stand out in daylight but will look right at night then that will be fine, if you want some thing that can be seen clearly in daylight then you would need the 5xled 360 degree bulb but at night they look so bright they are like dip beam.
that would be to bright for me...
just changed my number plate lamps

these worked out just right, i didnt want a bulb that was to bright as it lights up the whole rear bumper and they are meant to be number plate lamps,


Hi Mate,

if its not too much trouble could you put up a picture showing your registration plate lights to see how bright it is please.

really want to see what they are like

my number plate bulbs worked out great, a nice white light.
our xenons are 4300k in the light range so you want to stay around 5000k any higher and you are going to the blue light.. now the prob i found is that most of the leds come or are made in hong kong and what you got the first time round might differ the next time you buy them. you dont need error free bulbs for the interior but you do for the number plate V8 facelift Range Rover Autobiography 22" wheels.

just one thing when talking led's, there are new versions out now that give you far more light, they are projector style and have a magnify lens at the end to focus the light, as you know led's are bright but dont throw light very far,so if you are thinking of replacing your H7 or H11's look for the new lens type, i have ordered the lens type indicators to see how they look.

is there a concensus of opinion on the LED side lights, I'm sick of the difference in main beam and side light Thumbs Up
