As you may be aware I am rebuilding my 110 after an electrical fire: link
I am looking to reduce load on as much of the electrical system as possible during this rebuild. As much as I do not agree with led headlights because they are not in keeping with the nature of the vehicle, they are the best way to reduce load on the lighting circuit.
I know that there certainly used to be a lot of dogey versions around, and the am not looking at the cheap ebay specials unless someone can report back they are legal, and good quality. I am at the very beginning of my search and in no rush yet as still have a fair amount of other bits to rebuild first. This was prompted by another members thread about replacing HID with them that lead me to this site (link) from which I would be looking at the "LAND ROVER DEFENDER LED HEADLIGHTS (6500K)" (link). I do not want halo lights, nor do I want DLR and I would also be more interested in low beam light output than main beam light output due to having additional lighting on both the bull bars and the roof (which are also being replaced with LED).
What other makes/brands/models can people recommend form their own experience with fitting LED headlights. Within reason price is not too much of an issue, obviously cheaper is better, but I want good quality and legal as a priority over cheap. The vehicle is a daily drive and I do about 30k miles a year so it is easier to justify more expensive quality parts.
(Please do not recommend me the boomslang harness, I bought one of those, was thoroughly unimpressed with the design and quality, got halfway through modifying it to improve it (taking things back to the battery, placing relays somewhere waterproof, etc) before realizing that for the effort and cost I could build my own which is far superior.)
