LED headlamp units - recommendations please

[Dominic TVRetto]

As part of my upcoming rebuild I am replacing the OE headlamp assembly with LED headlight/projector units.

Any recommendations much appreciated - make/model, pros/cons, beam spread, looks, what made you buy that one, etc

Obviously not looking at £70 eBay jobs, but deffo open to outliers beyond the usual WIPAC, JD, etc...

Due to colour scheme most likely going for black units if I can...

Thanks!

Are they 7" round units?

If so, WIPAC have a version that looks remarkably like the units on that Valour or whatever the £m+ Aston thing was called... I think they were about £400 the last time I looked at them.

For what car?

Tuscan, T350 and Sag with the 90mm (plus those that have had the 'Tuscan front end' or the 'Silverstone SE' units fitted) Hella units can just swap out to Hella LED versions - which look the same as the bulbed units.

Tamy has genuine Jeep units fitted but their 'quirky' look suits the car.

Seems to me that the classic '9-inch' sealed unit look is not catered for in the LED market. Seems to be a drive to cram as much functions into these units as possible (DRL, highbeam, indicator, dipped, side). There are some plain looking projector 7-inch units but this would require a cowl / bowl fitting - unless it is an early Grief.

I would be looking at the various Retro builders sites / low volume manufacturers for what they fit.

These look quite good. I have been contemplating a set for my Landie
