2004 Range Rover 4.4 V8 Vogue Auto Zambezi Silver
Rear Lights LED or Supercharged Style

Ok im fighting a battle here and dont know what ones to go for lol

I really like the fact the supercharged lights look really clean on a silver vogue but i do like the newer LED style rear lights

What do u guys think re the lights? I know that the LED is a hassle with fitting but i will get around that if i went for them

thanks
Neil

I have an SC, so have the clear lights and have toyed with converting to LED, but the SC ones do look very clean with no red in sight, so I'm not convinced it would be an improvement in my case.

It's all down to personal taste at the end of the day.

Fitting LED rears isn't that much of a hassle these days, as there are interface boxes available that sort everything out for you for a couple of hundred quid. Got - 2008 TDV8 Vogue SE in Java black

I would only do the LED's as part of a full facelift otherwise stick with the clear ones

£29? Seems awfully cheap!

Or maybe this is awfully expensive! :-

They are different kits - the Powerful one is just fixing an issue with the fog light - you would still need ballast resistors and maybe a relay for the rest.

The eBay kit is a full interface for all the lights.

From that link, it says 'out of stock'. I have emailed them before but been having some difficulty getting a response from them. They told me they are developing a new kit but I haven't been able to get a proper reply from them about availability dates@! '06 4.2 S/C Buckingham Blue/ Parchment

I feel the S/C lights are still the way to go, I love them on mine and I don't like the new lights as much as the S/C lights. I love the clear look of them, that goes especially well with my Zambezi Silver car.

I do like the look of the 2010 LED lights and I think they look great on certain colours, like the black/dark coloured FFRRs. 2006 Range Rover Supercharged, Zambezi silver, black laquer/jet interior and all options.
Have the Faultmate MSV2 Extreme to be tinkering with the settings etc. !!

Here's a thought for you...

Safety... The 2010 rear light design was influenced heavily due to the rear indicators being missed by following drivers when the brake lamps were illuminated in bad weather before the indicators...

They are by far a better design. Far brighter and IMHO much more attractive...
