My LR 90 headlights are looking a bit grotty - one of the reflectors is rusty, they atract condensation inside, and the headlamp bowls are past their best. I'm thinking of getting new ones, and notice that Paddocks offer a few types...

RTC4615K | Halogen headlamp conversion kit (RHD)

PM1039 | Halogen headlamp conversion kit (RHD) - with Ring Ultra Xenon bulbs

PM678 | Wipac Crystal Halogen Headlamp Conversion Kit (pair) - left hand dip (UK and Australia)

Are the Xenon bulbs noticably better than normal halogen bulbs? What's the deal with the Wipac crystal units - worth having?

Usage is nearly all road, with very occasional tracks and light off-road. Often use back roads with full beam.
 
I've got the Wipac ones on my 110 and have found them to be a big improvement over the halogen sealed units that I had on my 90 I will probably stick a set of 100w bulbs in them and see how it goes, but anything will be an improvement over rusty reflectors!
 
I changed my headlamps for a Paddock set with blue bulbs, there was a slight improvement. I then fitted a pair of 100w Wipca spots which come on with the main beam. Very big difference. As good now as the lights on my Sprinter
