First of the to do jobs was to get rid of the big rubber mounted side lights, having seen the suggestions on here I went the Range Rover Repeater Route

out with the old

And Ready with the new LED's

A little bit of solder and heat shrink.

Snapped into place

And a test run, I do like the sharp white light of the LED's

A little work changes the look a lot

this is a great mod - initially started by ex-chairman Lee Hunter if I'm not mistaken?
I know it was easy enough to do when I had a roadster. Parts are easily found on ebay - range rover repeaters - just get bulbs and bulb holders (or leds) to suit and Robert is your father's brother. Nice work hkp
