| I replaced the lense cover but it leaked after 14 months or so, and just replaced the whole lamp assembly with one from Powerful UK Ltd - cheaper to do it once properly in the end. |

| Thanks TDV8 Paul, I had not heard of AJ Land Rover Before. I have just had a look at their website, and obviously you were happy with their work - so I will give them a call. |
