After some research I believe the light in your Defender 90 is a 7″ headlight, please verify that by measuring the diameter of the headlight. If your headlight is a 7″ light, these will work just fine in your Defender 90. Please let us know if you have any other questions.
Do these fit a Land Rover Defender 90
No these specific LED headlights are not available for an F150. We do have LED lighting solutions for your truck available from another manufacturer. If you want more information, please feel free to give us a call and we can get you LED lights for your truck.
Is it available for 00 f150 if not any?
I have these headlights, and they are worth every penny. They don’t bother oncoming drivers, and they are high and low beam. I live in the country and the roads are very dark at night. You can see twice as far with these over the stock Jeep headlights. It makes it a lot easier to see the deer in the road. I also like the very white color.
I hear ya…kinda useless in comparing the output on the road veruss halogen headlight. The new version is out now from Truck-lite…much improved apparently.
These lights should work as long as you have a 7″ headlight currently. But these lights will not be Green, when you see them at night they will appear white. If you’re still interested, they will work for your application, but they wont be green. Thanks.
quick question can these be used on a 1970 dodge d100 the connector looks to be exactly the same just curious because i want some green led headlights to match the truck color
These are DOT approved lights with hi and low beam. Thanks for the suggestions, I just updated the website.
Are these DOT approved? Do they create glare for oncoming drivers? Is there a low and high beam? Your website seems to lack these kind of important details… I would be interested in these for my ’73 F-250 4×4.
The lights are $279.99 each and are available on our website. You can search for them with part # POI27250C
WHATS THE PRICE ON THESE????????/
I like the front shot but how about a shot looking out of the windshield vs the other bulb.??
Sorry, I’m not seeing anything off hand for your Ford Explorer in the LED lighting market. We could probably find you a projector style light if you would be interested.
Do you guys sell them for the Ford Explorer 2011? I want them for the headlights and if they are good, I want them for the fogs. I’m also looking for LED reverse lights to. Any extra wiring, ballasts I need to use?
We have several employees running the LED’s and they absolutely love them. They swear by them and think they are great. These LED lights are really tough, to validate the toughness. These lights are used by the military, for the lights to get a military contract they have to be really tough and versatile. You won’t be disappointed with this LED light.
This is a “cold” video. =p
I want to choose between LED or HID bulbs. However, I heard LED’s go out easier. What do you think I should go with.
you are correct. These can be used on Jeeps, motorcycles or any other application with a 7″ round headlight. The pigtail on this specific part number is designed for Jeeps, so other applications may require slight wiring modifications.
thay will fit any 7inch headlight
I don’t know if these will fit in your Suzuki Samurai, if the headlight is a 7″ round headlight, it will work. These lights can be used in any 7″ application.
can we fit them in suzuki samurai???
where can i get those for my 72 skylark
i don’t see this “jewel” reviving acura from the abyss. acura needs a facelift redesign and get away from the “beaknose” look. acura reminds me of RIMM. they need something revolutionary in their exterior design.
can i haz?
Imagine the cost to replace one of these!
Not to be a downer but your info is inaccurate. LED lamps (yes I know they aren’t “bulbs or lamps”) have a varying lifespan from as little as several hundred hours to any potential duration. The electronics that operate the chemical reaction in that diode are the things that will fail in some normal span of time, say 10K hours or less. There is a new tech coming that submerges the LED in an inert liquid like gel that extends the life without massive heat sinks that cause design issues.
Also, they produce a great amount of heat, at least the high power CREE LED’s of today. Check into it and you will find large heat sinks built into the lamp assembly. Without the heat sinks the “bulb” would burn out in quick order, although it isn’t a bulb at all, it’s a chemical reaction.
The lens is not what you are referring to, it’s the outer headlamp housing glass/plastic, the lens is inside the housing. It also does not fade due to heat from the lamp but from the elements, especially road salt/sand mix in Winter. That’s why you can shine them (from the outside) to bring them back to a reasonable clarity. If it was faded due to heat, it would be on the INSIDE and you wouldn’t be able to polish it. And the power consumption is a HUGE difference.
forget their power consumption , they produce no heat! which means they won’t fade the headlight lens,
Yea mine makes a lot of glare, I’ve angled the headlights up slightly so foreground lighting isn’t too much and distance is quite good. I’m selfish I know. Poor college student, no money for new headlight housings
That’s where heat sinks come in my friend, but you do have a valid point about the heat emitted from LEDs. LED technology isn’t quite there yet, but we’re getting pretty close.
Rarely do I see PNP kits with minimal glare, but it is possible to minimize glare, aim down and go with the lower kelvin bulbs. Only problem is that you’ll be flooded with foreground light and not enough distance!
Personally, I would much rather save up the cash and go for a retro. But to each his own I guess.
Heat is the enemy of LEDs, the lifespan may or may not be that long, depends how well the heatsinks work and where the car is driven. PNP kits work well in some reflector housing but yes a lot look like crap. Mine are decent and it’s the best solution for my car (if you neglect oncoming glare to others). The best advice is to look at install photos of people who have done it in your particular car.
By Bixenon I mean a solenoid sucks the bulb in for high beam, there is only 1 HID lamp per side.
lololol DDM PNP hids into OEM housings I presume? FAIL!
And there’s no such thing is bixenon bulbs…That’s just a cheap gimmick that narrows the beam pattern when you flick your brights on. The only true “Bixenon” product are Bixenon projectors! For the sakes of other drivers, take your kit out of your reflector headlights, too much GLARE.
The life span of LED headlights are 10,000+ hours…you will be deep in the ground by the time an LED goes out..
Learn your shit.
LEDs and Lasers will come down in price. They aren’t particularly expensive right now, it is just that the technology is new and alternatives are far cheaper. Halogen headlights are actually still very well suited for driving when paired with modern optics and will be around for a very long time.
acura rlx, wow, wow, wow! on acura.com
Good looking headlights. But what I’d love to see is the next gen Acura TL. Hope it will look good. It’ll be my next car.
My 1999 Civic has brighter, farther reaching light than this. Using 55 watt HID system from DDMtuning, 4500K color temperature, bixenon (hi/low). Only cost about $70 and lifetime warranty vs when these LED headlight go out it’ll cost you hundreds to replace
Not at all, they use lenses to focus the light at the road below the windshield. There is a cutoff, same as on HID systems. The ones that you see on the road that are blinding are due to people outfitting HIDs into their headlights that weren’t made for them.
So how much does this blind oncoming traffic?
Just because the company uses it in rally racing doesn’t mean the majority of the people who but them do. Don’t worry I wont need a tow truck. For one it’s a ford (a rugged old working truck at that). Secondly that 300 straight six is arguably one of the best engines made, which is why it’s been manufactured from 1965 to 1996.
LED Headlamps for autos is a HUGE improvement. That and having varying degrees of angle to the “beam” is also a great improvement to safer night driving. LED lamps last FAAR longer than the Incandescent, Halogen & Zenon bulbs of present. They’re also half or less the drain on your electrical system, which is perfectly suited for Hybrid and Electric vehicles. I agree that just about everything these days is made to break so that you keep various ancillary industries in business.
A top of the line chevy would probably cost 5k or less brand new and cost 10x more then what it first sold as. All new “improved” vehicles lose at least a few grand after you drive it off the lot. So I don’t really see how this new add ons is really that great. The STI and Evo are top of the line, but I know of no one who rally races them. All of the modded ones i’ve seen are slightly dropped with a nice sticky pair of performance tires. Not really a rally racing set up there…
These headlights are cool but not really an improvement. Realistically most of this new technology is just more shit to break, and when it does your wallet takes a big hit. Okay though lets compare a 50s chevy. The chevy is simpler to work on, doesn’t throw a check engine light because a sensor isn’t happy, and goes for anywhere from 40k to 100k+ in mint condition (depending on the year). Now how many new cars appreciate in value?
I’m not saying headlights are “not enough” but there is always room for improvement right? That’s how it goes in the car world. Evolution to make things better. Compare a 52 Chevy to a 12 model anything and you’ll see what I mean. As far as the STi and EVO? Their heritage is RALLY NOT ricer/racing/tuning. They are both not the highest selling models for Subaru and EVO anyway so try again. Good luck with a Ford. Hope you have a tow truck ready.
audi sucks
and the lack of led headlights isn’t going to make me feel like i’m missing a thing.
