Just had a proper look in daylight. Thankfully it’s a pop off job

As the reversing lights are rubbish, can I change these for led too? Any links on where to buy the right canbus bulbs appreciated too. Thank you. |

I changed my number plate bulbs for LED and after a while I started getting lots of light faults popping up on the dash but none relating to number plate bulbs and when I finally removed the number plate bulbs to check them they had been over heating and had started to melt the plastic surround and had a very strong smell off burning.

Hmm, I've just changed mine for LEDs. I hope they don't melt the housings.

I had the same issue with the numberplate lights they got hot and almost started to melt the plastic and they also didnt work correctly after a while and started flashing rather than staying on so wasnt too great.

Prior to my RR expiring on Monday it has been fitted with LED's for 6 years. Every lamp apart from the Xenons was replaced. Had no issues - even got the funky RR projected lamps under the doors. Going to take me a while to transfer them all from the dead one to the new Westminster lol! Land Rover Addict

They 'just' fit, but it is snug without touching the lens. So far all looks good and they haven't overheated, burnt the lens or melted anything lol. Agree the group buy ones are shorter & have been made for the job, but I purchased these before I had this option...They certainly are a lot brighter Current RR L322 TDV8 VOGUE Past: RR L322 TD6 HSE, Discovery 2.
