. I'm sure it didn't seem that big when I saw it on the back of the Landy! Mind you, it dows say
130x130x130 - not sure what those measurements might mean. Might give them a call tomorrow and find out,. At that price, it's maybe worth a punt
Anyone used one of these? It's off a Landy Defender - I was following one the other day and it looked like it was quite neat, on a little plinth
thingy.
I found it here for £7.70 + £4 P&P (!) + VAT = £13.75 if my maths is right, so it looks LOwer COST than e.g. SVC:

Alternatively, anyone know of similar for less?
I was going to opt for Land Rover lights on the back. Theyre cheap and these ones are made by perei.
Only thing I can see, the fog light seems big at 130mm round (or am I being dim and thats the min for SVA)

It does sound a bit big (130mm = c. 5". I'm sure it didn't seem that big when I saw it on the back of the Landy! Mind you, it dows say

what about the led ones on ebay £20 odd these look good dont know about sva though
The LED ones are available at Maplins for half the price
Was just about to mention that - Maplin £10.37 ebay £20...rip off britain eh?! The landy ones are very big, look ok on a landy but maybe too big on a locost! If your looking at landy bits check out Paddock Spares....they can be a bit dodgey on stuff thats not in stock or special order type stuff but are brilliant for simple no thrills things like lights etc....next day and generally a couple of quid cheaper than lrspares. Just do a google on them and you'll find it no bother.....HTH Oli.
woops forgot to mention the genuine landrover ones (as fitted to mum's td5) have a big fat e-mark stamped on them so can't see any issue at SVA so long as u manage the usual viewing angles and vertical etc....Oli.

you need to think how to mount these - I think they are designed to be flush fitted on the bakc; the land rover having vcertical sides - you need some
angled jobbie.
there are also the rectangular lamps (fog & revers) for about £5 from paddocks. As my lamp units sare rectangular, I went for those.
I have a pair of cases for them (car was bought without lenses) that I cans sell ya and all you need to do is buy the lenses.
